Turkey announces "interception" of Greek fighters

Turkish Air Force fighters intercepted six Greek F-16 fighters over the Mediterranean. This was announced by the Turkish Defense Ministry.

According to the Turkish military department, the incident occurred on August 27 in the skies over the Mediterranean Sea in the area of ​​exploration work by a Turkish vessel. Greek F-16 fighters tried to approach the area, but were intercepted by Turkish Air Force fighters.

On August 27, 2020, six F-16 aircraft belonging to Greece took off from Crete towards the Republic of Cyprus and approached the region for which (Turkey - approx.) The international notification NAVTEX was issued. Our F-16 fighters prevented them from approaching this region and forced them to leave the region

- said in a statement.

The Turkish Defense Ministry stressed that the republic's armed forces "will continue to protect the country's rights and interests in the Eastern Mediterranean."

On the eve, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan notified NATO, represented by his Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, of his intention to defend Turkey's interests in the Mediterranean.

At the same time, the EU is considering the option of imposing sanctions against Ankara in connection with Turkey's actions in the Mediterranean.

F-16s intercepted F-16s. I thought I would not live to see this.

[loki565]

This is not like a normal interception, when you just approach and accompany the target, it is more like simulating close air combat.

All jokes, but the Turkish army is the second largest in NATO after the American and the second in combat readiness. Turkey does not have enough of the smallest - nuclear weapons, to generally spit on the opinion of Macrons, Merkel and others ... And the Greeks can only be saved by one thing - leaving NATO and entering the CSTO! Like the Bulgarians ... Because NATO is no longer a formidable alliance of like-minded imperialists, but a military-political corpse, corroded by internal contradictions. Sooner or later, the Turks will squeeze the whole of Cyprus and put Athens in the pose of an Olympian on a low start! And no one will stop them from doing it! Then they will take on the "brothers", which in Europe are generally no one and can not be called!

Dear Eugene,
In view of Erdogan's growing aggressiveness in all directions, Turkey's neighbors began to ponder ... I do not exclude the emergence of a new Balkan military-political union in the future, like the one in 1912. This issue is being raised more and more often in public space!

There are pre-orders - over the past decades, the old historical conflicts between the Balkan Orthodox countries have disappeared. Relations between them have never been so good. If there is a controversial one, they are all solvable. Interesting in many ways the same!
What is Russia's attitude to this issue? In fact, strategic interests coincide, while at the same time, the rivalry between Russia and Turkey is fundamental.
What is the problem? The socio-political system of the modern Russian Federation is closer to that in Turkey! Wallpapers are authoritarian! Democratic principles have already taken root in the Balkan countries, they are more attractive to them.
But as history shows, the difference in systems is not so important when it comes to strategic partnerships! It's my personal opinion.

Not the Turks, they are mostly adequate, but Erdogan. Wishlist autocrats often lead to bad results for them personally ...

[Oquzyurd]

It won't work. The Greeks are deeply in debt to the EU, especially to Germany. It got to the point that the Germans demanded several islands in return for the debt. They are still tied up economically and in terms of armaments. If today the Greeks say (they won't say, at the first trying to eat them), suppose we leave you, then it will take from 50 to 100 years for a divorce.

[pytar]

Not work out.

Turkey's actions routinely provoke opposition. It will work out or not, depends only on the strength of the action. If Erdogan climbs in the Balkans, where every inch of land remembers Turkish atrocities, he will very quickly receive a collective adequate response.

[Oquzyurd]

Knowing the Turks, knowing their policies, I can say for sure that the Turks intend to cooperate with the Balkans, and will not climb, as you said. This can be seen in the example of Serbia, how they build relations, how they play a role in reconciliation with the Bosnians, and how promote economic interactions, etc.

[pytar]

that the Turks intend to cooperate with the Balkans

We know what "Turkish cooperation" means! 5th century was! And the Serbs know!

[Oquzyurd]

I'm talking about the present day and about the prospects for cooperation. And you are talking about some centuries, and some claims to the past history. (How the Armenians behave) The Turks also have claims about history and the past. But we try not to talk about this, if You yourself are not pushing for this. Would you decide in your head whether you are for enmity or for cooperation?

[pytar]

Here listen, Jeyhun At the household level, we have no problems with the Turks. On state, too! Moreover, the Bulgarian Turks are an integral part of our society. And I also wonder how Turkish they are ... My friend Niyazi took and made himself a DNA test. It turned out to be more Bulgarian than me. So it is up to the Bosphorus!
I do not see any problems in the development of cooperation, but some of Erdogan's imperial manners can lead to serious conflicts!

The Turks will be older. There are facts. For a long time, but if there is desire, maybe I will.

My best friend since my student days, a Bulgarian Turk. I have many Turkish friends. By the way, Erdogan doesn't like most of them. In recent years, many of those who emigrated earlier in Turkey have begun to return. They say that the situation there is heating up, Erdogan is not their variant. And the pomaks are Bulgarian!

There are accurate statistics, so don't lie. Extreme arrogance - those who genocide just about anyone blame their victims! By the way, there was resettlement in both directions.

Do the Pomaks know that they are Bulgarians? Are they also Christians? Do you think they forgot 70?

Pomaks for the most part know their origin. In many old graves, where their great-grandfather was buried according to the Mohamedan rituals, Christian crosses are found among the bones. Yes, and our Turks, somehow blue-eyed, blond ... And the so-called. The "revival process" was one of the madness of the communist regime. It is impressive, but even now, after so many years, the "Turks" who have gone long consider themselves Bulgarian! Somehow the Turks, but not quite ... and they have reasons!
In 1878, Midhat Pasha speaks of their origin as follows: “There are more than one million Mohamedan among Bulgarians. These mohamedans are not strangers from Asia, as is commonly thought. They are the descendants of those very Islamized Bulgarians in the era of conquest and the following years. They are children of that country (Bulgaria), the same race, that tribe.

So this is not a military, but a political solution based on the centuries-old history of good relations between our states!

So these are Greeks and brothers, not Turks, and in 2008 and 2014 they imposed anti-Russian sanctions quietly ... - just as they do not recognize Crimea
Russian ... The Turks did not accept sanctions (as they were not pressured),
And Crimea is not openly recognized, unlike these Euro-tailings and hangers-on of everyone and everything ...

And why on earth would they be harnessed for us? It is better to be on the side of a strong EU, this is elementary pragmatism.
By the way, the Russian Federation did not intercede for Libya, the contracts were gone. The Russian Federation itself is on the side of the State Department, it is better to stay away from such.

[g1v2]

The Greeks are working in close alliance with the Franks now. And the Turks have practically placed themselves outside the alliance. Their only ally is Qatar. And by the way, the army of Greece is not small. And if they are still helped by the French, Egyptians, Saudis and emirates who have their own accounts to the Sultan, then you will not envy the Turks. And the Syrians and Iraqis will immediately take advantage of the situation to attack the Turkish occupation forces in their territories. Too many Turks have crossed the road.
But the most important thing is that the Turks are creating internecine strife in NATO. I hope that it will come to war. Trump is working hard to keep Turkey in NATO. but practically all other countries of the alliance consider the Turks to be a foreign link.

[pytar]

And the Greeks can only be saved by one thing - leaving NATO and entering the CSTO! Like the Bulgarians ...

I. In 2017 was Gallup international conducted a global survey in 68 countries of the world: asked respondents to choose a potential military ally of their country from six leading powers. Russia came in second with a score of 15%, behind the United States (41%). The respondents were asked the question: “There are six countries with great military potential in the world - the USA, China, Russia, France, Great Britain and India. Imagine that in the event of a military invasion of your country, you would have to choose an ally from among them. Who would you choose? "
A number of states in the east and south of Europe - Serbia (58%), Greece (48%), Bulgaria (42%) and Slovenia (30%) - found themselves in the camp of Russia's supporters. Traditionally Slavic Balkan peoples in Vost. Russia is preferred over Europe.
The results of a survey among the citizens of Greece and Bulgaria show that in the Eastern Mediterranean, within NATO, an axis of countries has formed where the population does not see Russia as an adversary, an enemy, but exactly the opposite - an ally.
--------------------------------------------------
II. In another study covering the countries of the former social bloc, it turned out to what extent their citizens perceive Russia as a threat? Bulgaria is in the lead 85% of the country's population does not consider Russia an enemy! Here is one clarification - in Bulgaria, the Turkish and Roma population is approximately 25% of the total population. Based on this amendment, it can be assumed that almost 100% of ethnic Bulgarians do not perceive Russia as a threat.

-------------------------------------------------- -
III. In another recent study from February 2020, 2/3 of the Bulgarians rejected the military intervention of their country in the support of a NATO ally during an eventual attack from Russia against him.

[Thrifty]

Pytar, if only your authorities also acted in relation to Russia, not only considering it an enemy, but also a dangerous country ...

[pytar]

Pytar, if only your authorities also acted in relation to Russia, not only considering it an enemy, but also a dangerous country ...

If we remove it with chatter, in fact, the Bulgarian authorities do not consider Russia an enemy either! You probably do not know, but all recent coalition governments include representatives of openly pro-Russian forces, such as the Ataka party. It should be borne in mind that all the same, the authorities are trying to take into account the foreign political situation as a whole, where the main interest of the country is membership in the EU.

[Oquzyurd]

You probably do not know that the EU, Bulgaria, Hungary, Spain, Italy and Germany are opposing the imposition of sanctions on Turkey. There will be a vote soon, see who will be against this time. I believe that Bulgaria, Hungary and the Spaniards will again be against it. The Italians have become questionable, and the Germans can vote for to calm down the worried Greeks. (Based on logic, they owe a lot to the Germans. , if the legs are thrown back from the attack, then the denyushki will disappear from the Germans)

[pytar]

in the EU, Bulgaria, Hungary, Spain, Italy and Germany oppose the imposition of sanctions on Turkey

Here's an example of a functioning democracy!

There will be a vote soon, watch who's against this time, I guess Bulgaria, Hungary and the Spanish will be against again.

Quite possible. Specifically, Bulgaria speaks about resolving disputes with Turkey through negotiations taking into account the interests of the countries. It should be noted that despite the historical burden, the current relations between Turkey and Bulgaria can be an example for other states. This has been repeatedly noted by the leaders of both countries. But the question is, how long will this last? Erdogan, with his aggressive actions, himself provokes his neighbors to an anti-Turkish unification. The political course towards the restitution of the Ottoman Empire, leading it, is an undeniable threat to all neighboring countries!

[Oquzyurd]

"Specifically, Bulgaria speaks about resolving disputes with Turkey through negotiations taking into account the interests of the countries." In this case, it is the Greeks who avoid negotiations, knowing that they have gone too far with the rights of the islands. And negotiations will be stuck in their eyes with reference court decisions for such disputes. That is why they avoid. In Europe, the Turks have special, friendly relations with Bulgaria and Hungary. I think. that this will last for a long time and nothing will change it. You probably know that the Hungarians even joined (as an observer so far) to the Turkic Council.
And at the expense of the aggressiveness of Erdogan. Iraq and Syria border countries and all the cheese boron of the Turks do not allow the separation of these countries, since in this case they will receive a hostile formation on the southern border - the state of "Kurds". And this is the number one threat to the integrity of Turkey. Libya is an echo and is directly related to the unresolved division of the Mediterranean Sea. That is, in cases at the border - a defensive reaction, and at sea defending their legal share at sea, and this is called aggression by those who do not want to give their share. during the silence of TR for many decades. Now TR is not silent, creating inconvenience to those who are used to it.

[pytar]

... Iraq and Syria border countries ... Libya, this is an echo and is directly related to the unresolved division ... in cases at the border, a defensive reaction, and at sea defending their legal share at sea, and this is called aggression by those who do not wants to give their share

So, Erdogan may decide tomorrow that he has a "legal share" in Bulgaria ?!

[Oquzyurd]

Of course not. There is a stable border with Bulgaria, no claims to each other. The legal share of the Mediterranean Sea, for which there is a struggle. For example, the Black Sea does not have such problems, since the neighboring countries already divided the sea in 1986 according to international rules.

When Erdogan came to power, one of the ego's goals was "Zero problems with neighbors!" What do we have now? Problems, perhaps from all the neighbors! Yes, there are no problems with Bulgaria yet, but observing the ego's actions, everyone draws their own conclusions! Moreover, many Turks in Turkey itself do not approve of the ego of domestic and foreign policy!

Sooner or later, the Turks will squeeze the whole of Cyprus

The whole thing will not work ...
3% of the island's territory (which is the overseas territories of Great Britain) is occupied by the British WB (conditions for granting independence to Cyprus) ...
In addition, half of the island is already occupied by the Turkish Armed Forces (the 11th AK, consisting of two MD) ....
And why the hell is Turkey the second half of the island, if Turkey needs gas and oil in the waters of this island .... which they recently explored?

NATO will get in the way, Turkey's plans have no desire to withdraw from it ...

Then they will take up the "brothers"

Turkish Air Force fighters intercepted six Greek F-16 fighters over the Mediterranean. This was announced by the Turkish Defense Ministry.

The Turkish Defense Ministry, in fact, reports a little differently:

On August 27, 2020, the Turkish air force's radar systems detected six F-16 aircraft taking off from the island of Crete towards the Republic of Cyprus, "the statement said.
As noted in the Turkish Ministry, the fighters were approaching the region, concerning which Ankara "issued an international NAVTEX notification".
An f-16 of the Turkish air force was lifted into the air to determine the object
a military aircraft was discovered by a Turkish vessel in the area above the geological survey
"The plane was identified as belonging to Greece and removed from the region," the Turkish defense Ministry added.
Earlier, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan declared the country's readiness to protect its interests in the Eastern Mediterranean.

[Simple]

Quote: tralflot1832

Of course, the Turks are offended, their economic zone ends in the Aegean Sea at the range of a pebble throw.

An economic zone is a stretchable thing.

"... There is also no demarcation between the two states on the continental shelf. The continental shelf is defined in the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. Turkey has not acceded to this. However, customary law recognizes that states can claim a continental shelf up to 200 nautical miles from the coast and possibly beyond. Turkey itself also suggests that it can at least lay claim to such a base from the mainland. At the same time, it denies that the islands can do so. So there are disagreements between Turkey and Greece. . ...
... I think that Turkey's position is not as bad as it is now presented. Because the demarcation of the continental shelf and economic zones is not necessarily based on a central line, but on justice and equality. In resolving international border disputes, it is recognized that the length of the coastline plays a role and is taken into account - and that smaller islands that would distort the border may be excluded from delimitation.

This could mean that Turkey will get more shares than if the central line was simply drawn between the Greek islands and the Turkish mainland. Therefore, it is not as easy as the Greek side does. This is why the motives for escalating the dispute are not entirely clear to me from a Turkish point of view. Only: as long as there is no agreement or the dispute is not referred to arbitration or an international court, there will be a deadlock and escalation through Turkey, which we are now seeing .. "

The battles on the southern flank of NATO are only in our favor. Our Mediterranean detachment can rest a little while the lovely NATO members figure out whose shelf, as a beautiful excuse.

But the Turks want to jump through them to Europe, they want to stand under the city of Vienna or the city of Berlin. Good luck ... nemchura still hangs you ... you won't figure it out in a century.

Commander Suvorov and the whole host of Russian commanders and soldiers gave the fesochniks so hard that they beat and will beat the Turkish reptile, treating Chechen militants. Knock at once, they send a reinforced mountain battalion to Vedeno at once volunteers and set up camps in the contiguous region and hospitals so that the thugs lick their wounds and the wounds will be inflicted on them by the Russian army.

This is not an interception. Greeks Turkish F16s were not allowed to approach the Navtex zone. The video shows how the Turks are targeting the Greeks, but they did not "argue" with the Turks and returned.

It is very important for Greece not to be mistaken in this confrontation with Turkey. the main thing is not to be a bargaining chip in someone's game.

But what a coin. Greece defends the right to live on its land and walk on its seas.

[Oquzyurd]

"to walk on their seas." Byzantium is almost 600 years old, for your information, every coastal country is entitled to receive its share of the sea, in accordance with international rules.

[Simple]

I think this territorial dispute will be resolved in the International Court of Justice. Otherwise, Turkey will simply not be allowed to produce gas in those territories.

[Oquzyurd]

The Turks are seeking precisely that the dispute is resolved, 1) at the negotiating table, or, 2) in court. So they are ready for this, here the Greeks, in both options, are not sure of the outcome in their favor, but they have to, there is no other option, since in the fight they still have to decide in the two given options.

So let them walk on caste.

It's funny, but no more ... When the EU imposes sanctions, if it does, then there will be a topic for discussion ...

While out of habit, they look back at the hegemon. Just a little bit left ...

Painfully tidbit there in the bowels, as they think!
For such a jackpot, hehemon can be sent far away.

[Cyril G ...]

So we are waiting, sir. In the United States, a looming civil war is mixed with presidential elections. How it will end there is still unknown ...

[rocket757]

We just look ... because in any case, from the other side, only all kinds of nasty flies.

You obviously do not read the entire thread of dialogues.

How can you forget something that never happened ?! By the way, you can "remember" Great Armenia to the Mediterranean Sea, the Asia Minor Greek Republic, the Democratic Republic of Kudistan and much more!

[tekinoral]

Gyumurjin republic (Ottoman. 1] [2] (Ottoman. region of Thrace. The capital is the city of Komotini (called Gumyurjine in Turkish, hence the name of the republic). In total, this Muslim republic lasted 1913 days (from August 56, 31 to October 1913, 25). In 1913, the Bulgarian troops annexed the territory of the self-proclaimed republic: this right was given to them by the Bucharest Treaty of 1913.

So it is in Greece! This area is often called the Aegean Thrace, / we call it the White Sea Thrace /.
