“In the face of the ongoing Turkish aggression, which is not a temporary phenomenon but a clear strategy of the neighbor that has completely restored the illegal narrative of the “Blue Homeland”, the Greek government is limited to… observation” points out the head of the foreign affairs department of K.O. of SYRIZA, Renas Douros, one month after the first Turkish provocation in Kasos.
“The government cannot afford to be silent. It owes immediate answers, not to the Official Opposition, but to the citizens of the country who are entitled to know if the government, with its passive attitude and doctrine of the given ally, damages the national interests of our country” he points out among other things…
Rena Douro’s statement:
“One month closes today since Turkey’s first provocative and aggressive intervention in Kasos, when it placed under surveillance the Italian vessel IEVOLI RELUME which was carrying out research work in view of the Greece-Cyprus electrical interconnection. The Turkish aggression continued throughout the month, revealing how the Turkish government perceives the “calm waters in the Aegean”: questioning Greece’s sovereign rights!
Faced with this ongoing Turkish aggression, which is not a temporary phenomenon but a clear strategy of the neighbor that has completely restored the illegal narrative of the “Blue Homeland”, the Greek government is limited to… observation. For a month, and while the SYRIZA-PS Parliamentary Group has submitted a question (with critical, specific sub-questions) to the Minister of Foreign Affairs regarding his attitude during the first episode in Kasos, the government does not react. Keep quiet fish. While demonstrating inaction.
In contrast, in the face of Turkey’s escalating aggressive policy that violates international law, SYRIZA-PS emphasizes the need for a coherent national strategy for the defense of our sovereignty and sovereign rights and the peaceful resolution of our disputes with our neighbors on the basis of international law.
Is the government’s strategic choice of silence and inaction related to the “good agreement” Mitsotakis-Erdogan, to which Turkish Defense Minister G. Guler recently referred? A month after the first Turkish provocation in Kasos, the government cannot afford to be silent. It owes immediate answers, not to the Official Opposition, but to the citizens of the country who are entitled to know if the government, with its passive attitude and doctrine of the given ally, is harming the national interests of our country”.
