What is Mitçotakis's Turkey Policy?

After all these years, we are officially used to two things, or rather, we are used to it, dear readers. We do not expect anything else. What they will do is formed in our heads. What are they? The first of these is the fraudulent conspiracies of the Greek Prime Ministers, which have been voiced on various grounds from history to the present, and the second is their collaborative outbursts. What has been done from history to the present is so similar to each other that they are almost the same. It is clear as day that they did not reveal anything different from what was expected. Is this just for today? Is it okay? No way. The expected organizational behavior of the Greek-Greek union has not changed in any way. Let's put it in a nutshell, "the fraudulent plots of the Greek Prime Ministers and their colleague exits" are inseparable pairs. They have always played similar dangerous games in every conjuncture, it is sad to say that they did not learn lessons even though they knew and lost their minds, but it is observed that they are still pursuing a similar scenario today.

All these are typical distinguishing features of Greece and the Greek part of Southern Cyprus integrated with ENOSIS from the past to the present, these two behavior patterns. Again, the reflection of this today, Greek Prime Minister Mitsotakis and Greek Cypriot President Nikos Anastasaidis in the statements they made at the joint press conference, they again revealed these two features together. You too are watching and you see, Greece is pursuing a kind of unnamed rematch. As Ersin Tatar, President of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC), stated, the unrealistic claims and accusations of the Greek-Greek duo against the TRNC and Turkey, and their dialogue and talks are oppressive. Oddly enough, Anastasiades' goal is the guarantee system in Cyprus, Turkey's guarantee and the guarantee of peace and tranquility is the removal of Turkish soldiers from Cyprus. This statement of Anastasiades is the constant target of the Greek Cypriot side. President Tatar could not help expressing one by one the crimes against humanity committed by the Greek-Greek duo to destroy peace and tranquility in Cyprus, as follows:

"It is Greece that founded the terrorist organization EOKA, which is the main occupier in Cyprus, supported and organized the Greek attacks launched to destroy the Turkish Cypriot people in line with the Akritas Plan, and organized the July 15, 1974 coup d'état to realize the annexation of Cyprus to Greece. "Turkey has brought peace and tranquility to all of Cyprus with the Peace Operation. Turkey's guarantee and the presence of Turkish soldiers in Cyprus are the biggest assurance and red line of the Turkish Cypriot people. The Turkish Cypriot people have never been to Turkey." He will not give up on the Turkish soldiers with the guarantee of .

Sir, after all this, let's express it with capital letters. In today's environment, where mutual exploratory talks began, "GREEK-GREEK MENTALITY HAS NOT CHANGED AND IT IS MADE INTO THE MEMORY THAT IT WILL NOT CHANGE." While another one was in the "Turkey and TRNC Determination Show", the fact that Miçotakis exhibited "KOLLPOCULUK, FAKE BULLYING" in a speech he gave to a Greek television is clear proof of this. His body language shows that, after Biden became the President of the USA, the expectation that he will gain diplomatic and political scope against Turkey together with the USA and the EU, and that sanctions will be imposed against Turkey at the EU summit to be held on March 25, 2021 has increased. . Mitsotakis plays the typical Israeli role, relying primarily on the Greek lobby in the US. Interestingly, the Prime Minister of Armenia, another artificial nation-state, Pashinyan, is also on the same path. Whatever they do, they act with the awareness that the United States will take care of them, just as the United Kingdom took care of them from their establishment to the First World War and afterwards. For this reason, Greek Prime Minister Kiryakos Mitsotakis has started many diplomatic attacks with his conspiratorial attitude. Mitsotakis and the leader of the Greek Cypriot Administration Nikos Anastasiades determined the tactic they would follow at the Cyprus summit, the hostility towards Turkey and the colpist movements. Mitsotakis then went to Jerusalem and had a deep meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. On the other hand, a 6-party meeting is planned to be held in Athens in the second half of February with the participation of the Foreign Ministers of Greece, Southern Cyprus, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and most probably Bahrain. It is also observed that it has already entered into a unity with France.

Let us now come to the fraudulent conspiracies of Greece. As you know, although there were many meetings between the two countries on maritime jurisdiction areas between 2002 and 2016, the interrupted view The chills resumed on January 25, 2021, after a 5-year hiatus. This is due to the fact that the Republic of Turkey is a great state. The 62nd round of restarted contacts will be held in Athens at the end of February or beginning of March, as agreed in Istanbul. Greece informs the public that during this meeting, maritime jurisdiction areas in the Aegean and Eastern Mediterranean will be discussed. This is actually a prerequisite for meetings, despite our insistence. However, Turkey has specifically stated that all problems should be brought to the table without preconditions during these meetings. Demilitarization of the Continental Shelf and Lausanne in accordance with the 1931 Royal Decree, which increased the Greek national airspace to 10 Nautical Miles, with the fraudulent Flight Information Region FIR declaration, which violated international law, which Greece took alone, quite rightly. He argues that all the problems between the two sides should be resolved, including the Greek islands, which are necessary, and the situation of the islands whose sovereignty is not determined by treaties. If the problems have evolved towards problematic, the agenda should be handled as a whole. This attitude of the Republic of Turkey is an extremely correct approach.

Now, let's come to the issue of the fraudulent Flight Information Region FIR conspiracy, which is not explained and cannot be explained in the gathering places. The reason for the disagreement is that Greece abuses the responsibility of the FIR Flight Information Region as its sovereign right. In fact, he is consciously approaching this situation even though he knows it is wrong. The FIR line between Athens and Istanbul airspace has been drawn on the basis of territorial waters for technical services only to provide information to civil flights. The 1944 Chicago Convention does not grant the assumed State sovereignty over the airspace over the high seas. Its name is structured on flight information for civilian purposes. Greece exhibits such a bossy attitude in this matter that it even requests flight information, route and altitude information from Turkish warplanes. Is such a thing possible or conceivable? Turkey naturally does not recognize Greece's attempts to portray FIR as a sovereign right. But Greece tries to keep this situation on the agenda on every occasion. Undoubtedly, Turkish warplanes are flying over the Aegean Sea under the control of their own air operations centres. Greek warplanes are also trying to intercept Turkish warplanes, which they admit to have gone out of the FIR Line, in other words, they are trying to do dog fighting. The primary reason for the Dogfight is Greece's intransigence in the Flight Information Region FIR fraudulent conspiracy.

Now let's come to the second fraudulent plot, the so-called Greek national airspace issue. In fact, this subject is a fine work organized during the time of Prime Minister Venizelos, a former Ottoman State official. After Venizelos came to power in Greece in 1928, he seemed to have temporarily abandoned the expansionist foreign policy he followed against Turkey in order to realize the Megali Idea, and made some attempts to establish a supposed Turkish-Greek friendship. The first of these attempts is the covert fraudulent Greek national airspace conspiracy. It's worth saying up front. This behavior is part of a typical slippery Greek national character. As a matter of fact, after a while, Venizelos was invited to Turkey as a reward for the image he had drawn. Venizelos accepted this invitation with great pleasure and made an official visit to Turkey in 1930. Even though the agreements signed between Turkey and Greece during this visit were shown to contribute to the development of Turkish-Greek relations, Prime Minister Venizelos continued to read what he knew by running water under straw. Including this sentence, he has engaged in a fraudulent conspiracy in the national airspace. In 1931, for the purpose of civil aviation and air policing, he bypassed the Greek Parliament and increased the national airspace to 10 Nautical Mile NM (one NM is 1852 m) with a unilateral royal decree. As it was clearly stated in the Lausanne Peace Treaty, although the territorial sea was 3 nautical miles at that time, it extended its airspace by 7 nautical miles. If you look at the game played, it has expanded its airspace 7 nautical miles against the open seas. He stole thousands of square kilometers from the common heritage of humanity, and took it for himself. Can you imagine that there was no air traffic in terms of passenger planes at that time, and patrol flights were made with military planes over the Aegean, whose routes and heights were determined very rarely within territorial waters. But Greece is after a cunning, a deception, a fraudulent conspiracy. Let's bring another interesting thing to you. Turkey is not aware of the decision taken by Greece unilaterally. It's kind of a is domestic law. Can you look at the cunning of Prime Minister Venizelos, a former Ottoman official? Venizelos lost the elections held in Greece in 1933 and fell into opposition; however, it continued to closely follow the negotiations on Turkish-Greek relations and the Balkan Pact. Shortly before the signing of the Balkan Pact, he broke new ground in world political history and nominated his old enemy, Great Leader Atatürk, whom he believed to be the real founder of the Balkan Pact, for the Nobel Peace Prize on January 12, 1934. This fraudulent conspiracy by Venizelos is typical Greek behavior. 'Karaman's sheep will come later game' is a Turkish proverb. It is a proverb that was said in reference to the Greek population settled in Karaman during the Ottoman Empire. Greek President Konstantinos Alexandrou Karamanlis is a Greek from Karaman. The hypocrisy of the Greeks has taken a place in the minds and memories of the Turkish nation in such a way that it is reflected in aphorisms and proverbs.

Now pay attention here, sir, Greece announced this domestic law regulation, which was based on the royal decree, to the world, exactly 44 years later, in 1975, with an Aeronautical Information Publication AIP, and demanded that this regulation be complied with. 'Karaman's sheep comes out after 44 years' game. It's not going to happen. The Republic of Turkey firmly rejected this situation and announced to the international organizations with the same method that it would not comply with the royal decree that Greece had unilaterally put into practice, which increased the national airspace of Greece to 10 nautical miles. As is known, the territorial sea in the Aegean Sea is 6 nautical miles, it can be extended up to 12 nautical miles if mutually agreed. It is the prismatic region above the territorial waters of the national airspace. According to the 1944 Chicago Convention and the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea, national airspace is limited to the width of the territorial sea. This is an immutable rule. The International Civil Aviation Agreement, the International Civil Aviation Temporary Convention, the International Air Transport Agreement, the International Air Services Transit Agreement and the final deed, which were signed and signed on 7 December 1944 in Chicago, were ratified by the Turkish Grand National Assembly on 5 June 1945 with the law numbered 4749. In other words, this contract has been internalized in terms of domestic law. Now let's stop here, take a breath and say it. The decision taken by Greece is “keen lemyekun”. This term is used in the legal literature to mean something that never happened, null and void. In other words, it doesn't make sense from the start. We have a very nice saying, it has no value. Now, let's explain this fraudulent conspiracy situation by Greece with an example. Lifting a helicopter on a Turkish frigate in the open sea adjacent to the 6-mile territorial waters of Greece is a violation, according to the royal decree that unilaterally declared by Greece in 1931, which increased the national airspace to 10 nautical miles. Now I ask you, dear readers. Is that possible? Or is something like this acceptable? The ship can navigate in international waters adjacent to its territorial waters, but fixed-wing or rotary-wing aircraft on it cannot fly. What kind of logic this is, it is impossible to understand. Let's stop and think, in this case, fixed-wing or rotary-wing aircraft on the TCG Anadolu (L-400) Multi-Purpose Amphibious Assault Ship, which will enter service next year, cannot be used. Or, with a reversed perception, territorial waters are 10 nautical miles according to the Chicago Convention. Could there be such a freak? Yes, dear readers, this is the real reason for dogfighting. Can you see Vehbi's kerrake? Is such a thing acceptable? On a 6-mile basis, 40% of the Aegean Sea is Greek territorial waters today. If it is extended to 12 miles, 70% of the Aegean becomes Greek territorial waters, less than 10% becomes Turkish territorial waters, and the high seas regress from 51% to 19%. The Republic of Turkey considered the 12-mile decision that Greece could take as a reason for war due to this rightful reason.

Let's come to Greece's third fraudulent conspiracy. First, let's categorize the islands in the Aegean and gather them in three groups, without overwhelming you with the names of the islands. The first group of islands is the islands left to Greece in the Aegean Sea in the period between the Treaty of Edirne dated April 24, 1830, when Greece gained its independence, and the date of July 24, 1923, when the Lausanne Peace Treaty was signed. The second group is the islands left to Greece with the Lausanne Peace Treaty and the Paris Italian Peace Treaty of February 10, 1947, provided that they are in non-military status. Third, the remaining islands, islets and rocks. There was no transfer of sovereignty for them in the Aegean Sea. Therefore, this island, islet and cliffs do not belong to Greece as Greece claims. However, despite this reality of international law, Greece has He argues that the lands that were not stated to have been left to Turkey in the Lausanne Peace Treaty, and that all of the lands that were not stated to be left to Turkey in the Lausanne Peace Treaty belonged to him. What a great country, isn't it? After that, he attempted to invade them with a Columbus-like attitude. On the other hand, Turkey has defended and continues to defend that the provisions of the treaties are valid until a short time ago and that its sovereignty rights continue in the islands, islets and reefs, whose rights it did not waive in the Lausanne Peace Treaty. The Kardak crisis in 1996 is the realization of this thesis of the Republic of Turkey.

This status accepted in Lausanne is different from the provisions of the Treaty of Sèvres, in which the Ottoman Empire agreed to cede all the islands, islets and rocks in the Aegean Sea. The Lausanne Peace Treaty counted the ceded islands one by one by name. In the twelfth article of Lausanne, only the islands of 'Lemnos, Samothrace, Lesbos, Chios, Samos and Ahikeria' are counted by name; Thasos, Bozbaba and Ipsara Islands, on the other hand, were transferred to Greece with reference to the Six Great States Decision and on the condition that it does not use the islands for military purposes in accordance with this decision. Against this, Turkish sovereignty over Gökçeada, Bozcaada and the Rabbit Islands and the islands less than three miles from the Anatolian coast was reaffirmed. As you know, the National Struggle was won without the Navy. Despite this, the Aegean being a Greek Lake was prevented in Lausanne. It is great success. To imply that Lausanne, the 18 islands that Turkey renounced the sovereignty of the islands, islets and cliffs 3 miles beyond, and therefore occupied by Greece, already belong to Greece, is to open the door to resurrecting Sevres. (1) It is the greatest of wrongs.

Greece, which has signed various agreements with Italy and Egypt, is also of the opinion that if an agreement cannot be reached, the issue should be brought to international courts. So what does that mean? The meaning is obvious. O Turkey, I have turned all these actors to my advantage, let's internationalize your loss. First of all, let's say that the Greek Prime Minister is a cheat, just like his former counterparts. He resorts to all kinds of tricks for his benefit, he is a tumble, a self-interested, self-seeking aferist. Now, after all this, isn't the speech of President Erdogan, who used clear expressions towards the Greek Prime Minister at the group meeting of his Party, not appropriate? What did Mitsotakis say? The Greek Prime Minister, who did not stretch his feet according to his quilt, organized a false heroism show and made a scandalous statement that "the strategic foreign policy goals are to end the 'Turkish occupation' on the island". Now, in this situation, isn't President Erdoğan right to make the following sentences, sending clear messages to Greek Prime Minister Mitsotakis, who is showing false heroism and collaborating?

“Don't challenge me, know your place. If you don't know, it means you kicked the table and ran away. You trust some mountains, it snowed on the mountains you trust, none of them will benefit you."(2)

Better just stay with that. During his visit to Cyprus, Miçotakis also vomited the poison inside him. The President continued his speech, “Now there is no way out in Cyprus other than the two-state solution. Either you accept it or not." Kiryakos Mitsotakis made a great show of collaborativeism and said, "The two-state solution is out of discussion". The answer to this is clear without any doubt. President Erdoğan, targeting Greek Prime Minister Mitsotakis directly, continued his words as follows:

'Look, you trust some mountains. It snowed on the mountains you trusted. But we cut our own navel, so he said, 'You will know the Crazy Turks well'.

After all, what I should say is that the Republic of Turkey sees the developments in the Eastern Mediterranean, Cyprus and the Aegean Sea and the rights to life as the right to political independence. All kinds of conspiracies and collaborative movements carried out behind closed doors against them have shouted to the whole world that they regard it as a reason for war. Despite the fraudulent conspiracies and the outlaws of the Greek Prime Ministers, the Republic of Turkey insists that it prefers legal grounds. The Cyprus problematic has evolved into new horizons in the face of the no-solution option adopted by the Greek Cypriot Administration, which has not been resolved for 47 years before Turkey. There is no longer any way out other than the two-state solution in Cyprus. Turkey and the TRNC knew how to show the whole world that this road will be followed with determination and determination, dear readers. Turkey is on the right track. Let's not darken the neck.
