ATHENS, (ST)_Greece has announced that reports about the transport of Turkish tanks to the Greek border are not confirmed and they are part of the Turkish regime’s internal propaganda.
Open TV quoted Greek government spokesman Stelios Petsas as saying: “Reports about the transport of Turkish tanks to the Greek border have not been confirmed and they are part of the Turkish propaganda for internal reasons. Moreover, the number of tanks mentioned in the reports could not change the balance of power in Evros area.”
He asserted that no date has been set to hold a meeting between Greece and Turkey at the level of NATO or bilateral level. ” There will be no communications as long as Turkish ships remains in the eastern Mediterranean.
On his part, Greek Development Minister Adonis Georgiadis has made a powerful statement that Greece is not afraid of Turkey and that it is not a big superpower as many people think is, after also attacking his political rivals in Athens.
“I believe that Mr. Erdoğan is in constant delusion. Going out and threatening wars and rivers of blood in France or insulting Macron in this way should be of serious concern to Turkish citizens because it goes beyond the bounds of diplomacy and politics.”
“There is no doubt that Erdoğan has in mind the revival of the Ottoman Empire. Anyone who thinks that Greece is afraid is making a big mistake. In these 35 days that we are with the fleet in the Aegean – because it is the biggest mobilization of the fleet in decades – we have made Greece an extremely better war-ready reality than many might have thought.” he explained.
