The visit of Kyriakos Mitsotakis to Turkey is not a typical meeting. 💡 We analyze why the narrative of "calm waters" hides a strategic danger: the gradual slide into "grey zones" and the acceptance of faits accomplis. Is Greece truly fortified, or are the expensive purchases of aircraft and ships leaving the real gaps in our defense exposed?
🔍 Analysis Highlights:
The Risk of Accumulation: How small technical concessions lead to national "amputation" without a single shot being fired.
Showcase Armaments vs. Operational Adequacy: Why we lag behind in drones, short-range anti-missile systems, and network-centric command.
The Ally Illusion: Why the U.S. and the EU will push for "compromise" rather than vindication in the event of a crisis.
The "Butter vs. Guns" False Dilemma: The need for proper resource allocation and transparency in defense spending.
The Message to Ankara: Why dialogue without credible deterrence works in favor of revisionism.
💡 The Conclusion: Peace vs. Attrition
National concessions are rarely announced; they are usually "agreed upon" in the name of peace. The question is not whether we should talk to Turkey, but with what strength and what honesty we approach the table. If the strategy does not change, inertia will turn into amputation.
💬 Discussion & Call to Action
