Provocative is the rhetoric about the Greek-Turkish language and of the candidate for the president of Turkey, Kemal Kilicdarogluwho is opposite Erdogan in May 14 election. As his correspondent broadcasts from Istanbul SKY, Manolis Kostidis, a few months ago Kilitsdaroglu has declared that “the islands are under occupation. Erdoğan, go get them like Ecevit in Cyprus.”
In particular, the Turkish presidential candidate declared last September: “We are not like those who say “I am coming, I will comeI will come in the morning“. But what did Ecevit do? The army went and made the landing, as prime minister he went to his office and announced our army is now in Cyprus’ and it was over. It is done”.
Those islands are under occupation. They are being occupied, I said it all the time, all this is being done against the Treaty of Lausanne. All these islands. They didn’t say anything. But now that the economy is bad, the world is impoverished. He keeps sayingi will come one night‘, I will come in the morning‘. What do you want them to send you an invitation? please come‘. If he has courage, if you have strength, you go!”.
“The islands are under possession – When I come I will take them all”
The opposition presidential candidate has threatened an invasion and targeted the Greek islands.
Kilitsdaroglou had declared: “Greece occupied 18 islands in the Aegean. I always say that. My friend you answer everything I say. Say at least one sentence about these 18 islands. The Minister of Defense of Greece answered me and said “come and take them“. In 2019 I will come and take all those islands!!».
In other statements he had mentioned: “The government will change, let us take over. The Greeks and the Greek governments know that we originate from the ‘national powers’. They know well what our tradition is and how we protect the interests of our country. They know well who Ecevit and Erbakan are. Now let them talk, when we take over the government, we will show them what will happen to the weapons that are on those islands.”
