Thursday’s exercise was the first manifestation of French President Emmanuel Macron’s commitment to temporarily reinforce his country’s presence in the eastern Mediterranean. France has called on Turkey to halt oil and gas exploration in disputed waters.
On Thursday, the French armed forces ministry said it was sending two Rafale fighter jets and the naval frigate ‘Lafayette’ to the eastern Mediterranean. “Emmanuel Macron is a true friend of Greece and a fervent defender of European values and international law,” Mitsotakis tweeted, in French, after the call with Macron.Tensions have simmered between NATO allies Greece and Turkey in recent days over overlapping claims to hydrocarbon resources in Mediterranean waters.
Turkey is under siege. Turkey should be very cautious and vigilant about the situation...!!
Greek stand alone is inadequate to confront Turkey
I hear that a further squadron of 🇹🇷turkey aircraft can be made available at any time. France should understand that bravado and thuggish behaviors is at an end They should be brave to say to greeces that deep compromises are now necessary
Recover Anatolia! Recover hellespont, recover Byzantium!!!!
We do not giive a flying damn about France carrying out joint military exercise with Greece or anything, and France should remember, no NATO country can engage into a war between other two members. If they try something funny, they will be very sorry for that.
what this mater got to do with terörist france. we Turks will not give up our gas and petrol interests in ege or mediterenian sea.
would make nice target practice for turkish military

Boş boş tatbikatlar bizi bağlamaz , bıçak meydana çıkınca herkes kaçar hasım kalır meydanda. Zaten bardak dolu damlayana yazık olacak. Türk halkıda bu bilinçte yeterki bir cuma vakti gaza fetvası verilsin 🇹🇷💪🏻🤙
Which country will accept this. What will France do there?
