>Turkish President Erdogan repeated the veiled threat to Greece, days after raising the possibility of military action against the fellow NATO member country
>Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Tuesday doubled down on his warning that Turkey could “come all of a sudden one night” in response to perceived Greek threats, suggesting a Turkish attack on its neighbor cannot be ruled out.
>Questioned about his earlier use of the phrase and the possibility of Turkish military action against its NATO ally, Erdogan reiterated the expression.
>“What I’m talking about is not a dream,” he said at a news conference in the Bosnian capital Sarajevo. “If what I said was that we could come one night all of a sudden (it means) that, when the time comes, we can come suddenly one night.”
>Turkey and Greece have decades-old disputes over an array of issues, including territorial claims in the Aegean Sea and disagreements over the airspace there. The friction has brought them to the brink of war three times in the last half-century.
>Ankara says Greece is violating international agreements by militarizing islands close to Turkey’s Aegean coastline. It has also accused Greek air defenses of locking on to Turkish fighter jets during NATO exercises over the eastern Mediterranean.
>Athens has also accused Turkey of violating its airspace.
Sooo… would Nato help a Noto member being attacked by another member?
and NATO could bitchslap Turkey “all of a sudden one night” for attacking a NATO member.
This will look great on Turkey’s application for accession to the EU
Turkey has nowhere near military hardware to invade anything.
At best they may take a few islands and be sanctioned to the stone age and beaten back by NATO supplied Greek army
I don’t think Erdogan is so stupid , he’s just saying it for elections
Oh? Are there elections in Turkey soon?
r/Europe when Greece breaks internationally recognized treaties, that force them to keep the islands demilitarized and supports a pro-Russian dictator in Libya, because they want to exclude Turkey from Meditteranean gas pipelines😀 r/Europe when Erdogan says something 😡
