New challenges Akar: In the Aegean, the bad neighbor keeps harassing us

The barrage of challenges from Ankara against Greece continues.

The Turkish Minister of Defense insults Greece, Hulusi Akaras reported by his correspondent SKY in Istanbul, Manolis Kostidis, said:

“In the Aegean, the bad neighbor keeps harassing us. Nlet me say clearly that we don’t do any harassment, if they don’t do it to us. This applies to the Navy, Air Force and Army. What we are doing is that we will not allow our rights to be violated. We will not allow any fait accompli. This is certain».

Reiterating Turkish claims of blocking Turkish fighter jets by Greek S-300s – categorically denied by Athens – he said: “In the past, although we negotiated with the US long-range air defense systems, to defend our airspace, they did not give us the Patriot system. We talked to the French, they didn’t give us the SAMP-T. So we went and bought the S-400s.”

He continued: “Then they were up in arms, ‘how can you buy a system like that?’ Now, on August 23, the inferior version of this system, the S-300, Mrthey spotted Turkish F-16s on their radars while they were carrying out a NATO mission.

What our evil neighbor has done must be known, publicized and denounced. Such flagrant recklessness, such a spoiled attitude is unacceptable.”
