But if you go here Hellenic Air Force - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia it says:
S-300PMU1 AA missile system: 1 Battery / 8 launchers / 39 missiles
Whatever. In any case read this thread from start to finish: WAFF | Greece & Turkey Defence Forum | World's Armed Forces Forum: ISI Hellas...
Olympic Airlines should've being privatized long before any of that happened. In any case this is a thing of the past now.
There's no issue currently with the U-214 payments and the U-209 are not currently going through any upgrades. Only the MEKOs are planned to go through a mid-life upgrade...
First of all it's not the World Bank but the IMF. There's a payment to the IMF of €774,164,409 from the first bailout to be paid by May 12.
Now our govt is composed of insane people so I don't know what they plan to do. What I would like them to do is to get a deal in the next Eurogroup on...
In any case just to make it clear, Greece is not selling any of its Type 214 submarines. The first submarine is currently operational. The second submarine is about to enter operational service. The third submarine is about to be officially launched. The fourth submarine will be launched by the...
Chinese and Russian systems are always integrated to national networks and NATO's air defense network via buffer/proxy software. The US doesn't like it because of security reasons bla bla bla but nobody really cares.
Meh, can you really negotiate with the Houthis though? I think that Hadi should come back to power as the legitimate president of Yemen. There's no way the Houthis will accept that. Only if the Saudis back him up with boots on the ground is there any chance of that happening.
From the official site of the Police force. All arrested illegal immigrants from 2006 to 2014 in blue. In the first three months of 2014 there were 2.9k illegal immigrants via sea routes (most usually come in summer). In the first three months of 2015 there have being 10.4k illegal immigrants...
Greece has actually stopped putting the illegal immigrants in detention facilities. Our new leftist stupid govt gives a 6 months permit to all immigrants and has closed down the detention facilities. Ugh. 75k illegals came to Greece last year but with their new policy I'm sure that 250k+ will...
In any case Armenia has being doing a good job at promoting their cause I think. More and more countries every year have being recognising the events as a genocide. I don't know to which degree Turkish lobbying will be able to surpass that. I guess we'll see in the next years.
And what would you propose as a solution then? Turkey closing its ears and waiting until the Armenians stop? Doesn't sound like a very viable solution.

Mhm, I think you're right.
I assume that this holds true for many Armenians, which is why I wanted to make my stance clear. I think that it's a moral issue but not an economic or geopolitical one.
I think that other countries have to recognize it as well and most importantly Turkey itself.
I've seen some posts saying that the Armenians seek compensation for this crime but I don't think that the legal ground for such moves exists so I wouldn't want to see any steps towards that direction...
I think that big mistakes of the past like this have to be recognized and as thus I think that the Pope's statement overall had a positive meaning and effect. More has to be done but I think that it's a positive step nonetheless.
A full S-300 battery probably costs less than $150 million. Maintenance of the system and replacement of the missiles that have gone past their expected lifetime most likely costs much less. I guess that a Russian navy base is worth much more than that. It's one of the good decisions that...
