The situation in the Aegean seems extremely tense as Turkey two days ago warned Greece with the occupation of the islands, if official Athens continues violations in the sea and water areas of Turkey.
Today came a strong warning for Greece and from Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. He has urged Greece not to arm its islands, otherwise it will face consequences.
"We once again call on Greece to stop arming the islands that are under civilian status and to act in accordance with international agreements. I'm not kidding, I'm serious.
We warn Greece like a century ago to stay away from dreams and actions that will make it repent.
"Turkey will not relinquish its right to the Aegean and will not hesitate to take action that is recognized by international agreements on arming the islands," he said during a military exercise in Izmir.
