They are welcome to try, Turks need to keep their fucking mouths shut, stop threatening and do something. Fire a missile, anything, talking shit is for cowards.
It’s time for the EU to REALLY warn Turkey
I bet this subject will be full of actual facts and not rhetoric between Greek and Turkish posters.
Lol they won’t do shit
Be careful don’t upset the Ottoman Empi… oh wait it’s just Turkey

>We use hard power when all other choices are exhausted and in order to drive things to dialogue and diplomacy.
Completely not true. When the Kurds in the Kurdistan region of Iraq wanted to declare independence, Erdogan personally made threats of war and invading “if they have to”.
They again resorted to invading Syria when the Kurds looked to be gaining their self-governance. They [faked the victim act and invaded Afrin](https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-43262839). Afrin had avoided the destruction of the civil war and was a prosperous Kurdish majority city until the Turks invaded and today use their proxy mercenaries to occupy the place, Kurds have fled and now it’s filled with ex-isis fighters. Reports of all sorts of crimes almost on a daily basis.
They still desire to prevent Kurds to get some form of self-governance in Syria. Same with the Kurds in Turkey, it was the Turks who refused any middleman in the peace process, because they knew the middle-man would just basically say give Kurds their self-governance already.
Erdogan fighting his own size finally, what a real man
Yep, same shit different day
Lmao
We have a saying here: “A dog that barks doesn’t bite”
Least typical Turkish measure
And they still in the list to join EU and every year receiving milions after milions of Euros for this. They forget no one likes them.
Typical Turkish response.
‘We use hard power when all other choices are exhausted and in order to drive things to dialogue and diplomacy. In the Eastern Mediterranean, we mobilized in order to demonstrate that our legal rights and our sovereignty are non-negotiable, ‘said Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu.
“Both Greece and the Greek Cypriot Administration [Republic of Cyprus] are taking steps that increase tensions in the Eastern Mediterranean. The effort to send research vessels into [the area of] our continental shelf in the Mediterranean continues. We respond to these provocations both on the ground and at the [negotiating] table and we never allow a violation of our rights. The Greek Cypriot side announced that it will start drilling in November. If that happens, Turkey will continue to give the necessary responses to such provocations in order to protect the rights of the Turkish Cypriots. ”
Cyprus: OH NO!… Anyways.
Welcome distraction from their failing economy, so very predictable. Maybe Cyprus should consider not doing Erdogan the favor. There’ll be ample time to drill once Turkey is locked into the inevitable succession struggles soon to come without unnecessary drama.
Turkey just loves to unite the Balkans
As much as I detest war, this is one of the few examples where I think it would be best if the EU were to form a little coalition and just force Turkey from the island, show them what hard power really looks like. You would think powers learned that the light touch/appeasement approach to dealing with these types of aggressive states doesn’t tend to work out in the long run, better to deal with it now than wait until it’s a bigger issue.
Little detail: Cyprus (the free part, not the part that is illegaly occupied by Turkey) is part of the EU. Attacking Cyprus would be attacking the EU. I don’t think he is suicidal.

Erdoğan: *”I guess I’ll just threaten Cyprus then”*

Most peaceful Turkish statement.
