Turkish media: ‘Pserimos regime unclear’ – ‘Island less than 3 miles from Turkey’

Pserimos is in the spotlight of the Turkish media, as from the general “Aegean islands” the Turkish revisionism and provocation seem to have focused on the small Greek island.

After the Anadolu agency, which with espionage methods showed shots yesterday from military installations from Pserimos, wanting to show that it is being militarized, today the baton was taken by TRT.

Turkish state television also aired a short video stating: “While according to international law it must not be equipped, Greek soldiers, an outpost and artillery items were recorded on the island of Pserimos, located 8 km southwest of Bodrum.” .

Anadolu itself is making even more dangerous propaganda, as a retiree appears to say that the island, which is close to 5 miles off the Turkish coast … is less than 3 and according to the Treaty of Lausanne should be Turkish!

“Pserimos pursuant to Article 12 of the Treaty of Lausanne is located three miles from our mainland and for this reason it is our island. The island is ours. According to the Treaty of Lausanne it is ours and they put “They are claiming our island. And yet the existence of this flag is a crime. We have to say ‘either remove this flag from here or we will do the necessary'”, says a former executive of the aviation intelligence department, Colonel Gursel Tokmakoglou.

For its part, Haber Global last night on a show, raised that issue of Pserimos: “On the island of Ketsi (Pserimos) which is located 8 km off from Bodrum and has a vague regime of domination, heavy weapons of Greece were recorded. An island where, despite the fact that it must be demilitarized, military installations are recorded, the Greek flag was painted and, according to demobilizers, this is a provocation. of these is Pserimos which is the closest island to the Turgutreis area of ​​Alikarnassos law.Pserimos came to light the previous days, with the visit of the Prime Minister of Greece Kyriakos Mitsotakis.The island according to international law should be banned settlement and disarmed, but Greece in violation of the law set up a base on the island. “causes the Greek flag on the island”, reports the pro-government channel.

The Aksam newspaper shows the photo of Anadolu from Pserimos, circling the Greek soldiers and writing “goats in military uniforms”, in an ironic pun with the word “Katsikonisi”, with which the Turks call the island. Aksam even goes one step further and claims that Pserimos is in Turkish territorial waters.

“Greece was caught on the spot,” writes Yeni Safak, noting that a military base has been set up in Pserimos just 8km from Bodrum. He accuses Greece of disobeying Lausanne and also refers to the visit of Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis to the island.

“Greece does not stop provocations”, writes the newspaper Sabah. He shows the same photos and states that there are heavy weapons and artillery forces.
