We know that and thats why Turkey will not attack Greece before make sure that no one can come to help of Greece. And that kind of guarantee can come with nuclear weapons only.
Our doctrine is purely defensive. We can't invade Anatolia and whoever invades in Thrace will be hit by artillery. Our side is a bit more mountainous and your side is flat. So whoever invades will suffer heavy casualties,theoretically.
I don't agree. France has just to stand two SSN in the Aegean sea and Turkey navy is out.
If France thing he have right to harass Turkish ships or have right to enter Turkish EEZ than ofc military will stop them, It is simple act of defence.. It was a suprise when Frenchs attacked a civillian ship in 2020 but now its impossible.. And ofcourse we are not friends anymore, France didnt support Greeks in 90s but they support now, Why? Because Turkey also support all kind of Anti French organization and fighter groups in West africa + Sahara
Greek islands are used for insade propaganda because normal Turks actualy dont care about EEZ, air-sea mile problems, They would support only ıf they feel threat, But real problem is EEZ and 6-10 mile in the air.. Both of us thing we are "defending" ourselfs
The incident happened outside Libya. The French frigate was enforcing an arms embargo by the EU and a ship,escorted by a Turkish frigate,refused to be searched. The Turkish frigate targeted the French one 3 times.
When did that happen? What's the backstory? Maybe we are talking about the same thing?
You are wrong. The french frigate and the 2 turkish ones were there for the same purpose : to prevent illegal weapons delivery to Lybia (NATO operation "Sea Gardian"). But when the ship is a turkish one, then all change and our "ally" moved to a "pirate"
I only agree to that. Turkey is now a danger for Greece, for France, for Egypt, for Israel.
Sorry for late answer, as I new member I have limited right to write
If its a Turkish ship than it cannot be raid by French navy, İt's simple.. Even in French source there is nothing about French frigate try to communicate with Turkish frigates.. Also France was part of another operation wich is independent from NATO missions aka İrini
LOL. In this case it would be impossible for a X frigate to stop a drug traffic because the ship is not from a X nationality !

What is that story? An attack?
The turkish vision of the event. Not the rest of NATO one.... but here come diplomacy, not to blame the so irritable Turkey...
As you can see,they kept refusing to have the ships checked. And then they try to lecture us about "international law". They say they want to get in the EU but won't abide by a EU embargo on weapons in Libya.
a little logic lesson from me, baby, if it is clean as we say, why should I let you search my ship for no reason you are the cops this world or what international waters or on the continental shelf of Libya. if things became like this you shouldn't be able to move your damn finger but your country threw Libya into this mess and for the money Africans knows first hand they are moving steady fast your side also these issues gonna hurt your head more in the future
There's a UN weapons embargo on Libya. Enforced by EU members.
Wait and See the Wagner experience in black africa....
