Erdogan îndeamnă Grecia să oprească înarmarea insulelor din Marea Egee. „Turcia va face ceea ce este necesar”

Turkish President Erdogan urged Greece to halt military buildup on Aegean islands, warning of necessary actions if Athens persists. This statement highlights ongoing tensions between the two NATO members over the demilitarization status of these islands. Erdogan emphasized Turkey's desire for good neighborly relations but criticized Greece for not responding to Turkey's initiatives. He referenced historical lessons and asserted that Turkey does not seek to acquire Greek territory but will defend its rights. The dispute over the military status of the islands has historical roots, with Turkey citing treaties to challenge Greece's military presence, which Greece firmly rejects, asserting its sovereignty and right to self-defense.
