Turkey and Greece war is ‘just a matter of time’ Erdogan ally warns as navies face off in Mediterranean

A FIREBRAND Turkish politician and ally of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has warned war with Greece is now „just a matter of time.“

Nationalist Movement Party leader Devlet Bahceli said Greece’s plans to extend its territorial waters by 12 miles will spark a bloody conflict. Fears are growing of a full-scale clash between the pair after rival navies made a show of force in the contested waters between Cyprus and Crete. And Bahceli has now declared he believes Greece’s „invasion“ plans will „have a very bad ending.“ He said: “It is inconceivable to turn our backs on our historical interests in the Mediterranean and the Aegean. „It seems that Greece’s appetite and desire to be thrown into the sea has swelled again.“ And the politician stressed a conflict in the Mediterranean and the Aegean is now a matter of time.

Both navies have been holding drills in the disputed waters
