Akar: Greece is dressed in sheepskin, trying to make the victim

The Turkish Minister of Defense maintains his provocative attitude towards Greece, Hulusi Akar, accusing her of that “Dressed as a lamb, trying to make the victim”.

“We have some problems with Greece in the Aegean, the Mediterranean and Cyprus. These problems become deeper due to the populist and uncompromising behavior of some Greek politicians, which is not in line with international law and is out of reality. Despite our well-intentioned calls for dialogue, Greece is trying to give the image of a victim country, distorting all kinds of data, dressed in sheepskin to cover up its illegal and aggressive actions.

It resorts to the EU creating an artificial perception of threat and forming alliances within an alliance, while to solve its problems with the Turkey, tries to reduce them to Turkey-EU-US or Turkey-NATO problems. Greece acts against international law, common sense and historical facts in almost every issue between us“, Said Akar at an event for Sadiq Ahmet.

At the same time, according to Hurriyet, the Turkish Minister of Defense once again expressed his annoyance over the issue of our country’s armaments programs, speaking of an “expansionist perception”.

«All the illegal and irrational actions of Greece clearly reveal its expansive perception. The fact that Greece, founded in 1832 with an area of ​​then 47 thousand 517 square kilometers, has almost tripled in size in 7 stages, is a clear indication of this expansion. All these are actions that do not contribute to regional stability and security, on the contrary they escalate tensions and are against the spirit of neighborhood and alliance. In addition, Greece, with the encouragement and challenge of some countries, has fallen in love with armaments, which is provocative. “Some Greek academics, diplomats and the military are openly saying that this approach is a futile endeavor,” Akar said.
