Preparing for war in the Mediterranean is culminating by Greece, which Wednesday deployed warships in the Aegean Sea in order to adapt to the situation that Turkey has continued to commit through its officials and foreign policy makers in reaching the height of violence and estrangement with European and Mediterranean countries.
The expected Greek move came a day after a letter of refusal and protest by the Foreign Ministry headed by Nikos Dendias against the announcement of the Turkish authorities to send a drilling ship in order to carry out excavations in the maritime area south of the island of Castello Risu, south of the Aegean Sea.
The Greek protest letter addressed abroad states that Turkey has demanded that its illegal activities that violate Greece’s rights and sovereignty, undermining peace and stability in the region, be halted.
Turkish behavior in the Mediterranean after the GNA facilitated to Turkey many formal complications and paved the way for them to exercise a greater role in the Mediterranean is in violation with the established European Union regulations.
On the one hand, Greece and Cyprus, Turkey is practicing drilling and exploration against all European and American warnings of the need to stop and end the state of tension that Erdogan insists on continuing with an escalation approach that he has clearly pursued in the last months.
