Milliyet – Heavy disappointment in Athens from Biden and Macron
“US President Biden has been criticized by columnists in Greece and even made headlines in Cyprus,” Turkish journalist Ozai Sentir wrote in an article in the Turkish newspaper Milliyet.
“The second slap”
“The reason for the frustration of both countries is that the US president did not mention the Exclusive Economic Zones and the tensions in the Eastern Mediterranean during his meeting with Erdogan,” Sentir added in his article entitled “Heavy take-off in Athens” . “, And it continues:
“It was the second slap in the face in Athens and Cyprus (Southern Cyprus in the text) in ten days.
First, France stated: “Exclusive Economic Zones do not fall within the scope of the defense cooperation agreement.”
Now, US President Biden has not added, for the sake of Greece, the Eastern Mediterranean to the files of tensions with Turkey.
As in any country, Americans are primarily concerned with their own interests, no wonder Biden did.
The strange thing is that Athens, since Biden was elected president, has been cultivating the climate “The president is our man, Ankara is burning now”.
The Greek media now sing “The new German government is coming, Turkey will see now”.
Athens simply does not understand that neither the US nor Germany nor France will overturn relations with Turkey in order to defend Greece’s positions.
The president of France as a loser
The dispute over the licenses of several dozen fishermen between France and England has turned into a serious crisis.
He says the other side must find a solution in both Paris and London.
The Australian Prime Minister, accused of lying by the great president, leaked Macron’s written message to the media.
It is a pity that it was done diplomatically, but it was very enlightening about who was a liar.
The President of France met with the President of the United States Biden.
The newspapers had to interpret the Biden-Macron handshake as to who put his hand on his shoulder, or used both hands and gave the message of superiority to the other.
It was as if they were talking about a Greco-Roman wrestling match, which was broadcast live, rather than a handshake between the two leaders. A strange situation.
The EU boss, Germany, held a conference on Libya in Berlin.
Macron, who has the idea that “Merkel is gone, I am the new boss”, also wants to organize a Conference on Libya in Paris, but when the game started with Greece, Cyprus (Southern Cyprus in the text) and Israel, Turkey refused to participate.
However, the conference cannot take place without Turkey.
He had to plead with President Erdogan not once, but twice, during the meeting in Rome. It had no effect, at least he tried to save time by appointing a representative.
France used to be a big country, after Macron it became a big country.
Who is changing power in Turkey?
Unsurprisingly, what is being done about a change of government in Athens, Nicosia, Paris and Turkey is being considered.
However, it is painful to think about what the “Washington – Paris – Berlin” will do for the change of power in Ankara, Turkey.
It is very important for the future that each party warns its base on this issue.
The people living in this country decide who will rule Turkey.
At least, we have to agree with this minimal audienceā¦
Oh, Mr. Kemal, be carefulā¦
The chairman of the Republican People’s Party-CHP, Kemal Kilicdaroglu, criticized the G20 Summit and the Biden-Erdogan meeting.
You do not have to like it, you can criticize it, but you should not miss an important element.
“Have you seen Gazi Mustafa Kemal go abroad to such a position or another leader to fall into such a position?” The CHP leader told Yozgat.
Mustafa Kemal Ataturk never went abroad after the recovery of the Republic, he always lived in Turkey.
“While giving examples from Ataturk, we must pay double attention not to the language, but to the facts that mention him,” concludes Milliet’s article.
