The Turkish provocation has exceeded all limits.
Ankara celebrated last night Greek government plane over the Turkish-Iraqi border in the air for about 20 minutes, refusing to grant an overflight permit to the ship that was transporting Chancellor Nikos Dendias to Athens.
Turkey had initially allowed the Greek government plane to fly over its territory, but when it reached its border with Iraq, it blocked the flight and forced the Greek plane to circle for 20 minutes until permission was finally given.
The timeline of the new challenge
According to the information, it all happened on Wednesday night, when both Nikos Dendias and the Greek delegation accompanying him to Iraq entered the Embraer “Nefeli” government to return to Greece.
The Turkish authorities were notified of the VIP flight and gave their approval, however, when the aircraft approached the border, they removed it.
Intense diplomatic communication began and the aircraft was forced to lower altitude and circle until the matter was resolved, The question was raised as to whether there was a risk of fuel shortage.
Finally, Nikos Dendias’s plane arrived at Elefsina airport shortly before midnight.
The fact shows the Turkish intentions, for the intensity of the “war of nerves” and the culmination of the challenges against our country.
Dangerous games in the eastern Mediterranean
At the same time, Turkey continues its dangerous games in the Eastern Mediterranean as after the wandering of Oruc Reis, On Wednesday night it sent the Turkish floating drilling rig Kanuni to the area.
The Oruc Reis, continues today cutting walks along the Greek continental shelf, constantly opening and closing its transmitter, while contrary to what Turkish officials claim, it remains unknown if you have started studies in the area.
“A hot episode in Erdogan’s plans”
THE Angelos syrigos, Professor of International Law and Foreign Policy at Panteion University and Member of Parliament for ND, spoke with MEGA by the barrage of challenges from Turkey.
For a difficult time perhaps the most difficult of the last 35 dayssaid Syrigos, who also referred to the pressures exerted on Turkey, which are “much stronger than last time, which can have quick results.”
Erdogan made a move in which he tried to reopen the terms of the negotiations and substantially change the agenda. He is interested in the gray areas of domination, demilitarization, airspace “explained the professor.
He noted that the Turkish president hopes that Europe will not react strongly, while he also referred to the US elections that create a power vacuum that the neighboring country is trying to exploit.
When asked if Erdogan was looking for a hot episode, he noted “It’s in his plans, he doesn’t rule it out, he’ll probably haunt him too.
Emphasizing that the Sultan’s problem is “Who will take the first step. If he had solved this problem, he would very much like a hot local episode.”
According to Mr. Syrigos, our country does not choose the military field, but the diplomacy from which Erdogan constantly distances himself.
The professor referred to statements by the head of GEETHA, Konstantinos Floros, who in an interview at the beginning of summer, He had emphasized that if a heat episode occurs it will not be punctual, but on a large scale.
“The episode will be extended,” said Syrigos, who emphasized that Erdogan has the hot episode in his plans. “Trying to have the smallest possible reactions, as in Varosia. It does not open the city, it opens the beaches and catches the reactions of the international community.”
“Greece has not expanded its territorial waters beyond 6 nautical miles, however, either the Oruc Reis is at 6.5, or at 12.5, or at 30 it is in areas of the Greek continental shelf. When you react to 15 miles, you react to 6.5 “the professor pointed out.
