Egyptian President’s Warning: Erdoğan uses Islam and a wave of terrorists could go to Greece,” by Paul Antonopoulos, Greek City Times, October 24, 2020:
Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi warned his Greek and Cypriot counterparts that a wave of Turkish-backed jihadists will be a problem for Greece “in the future,” according to Ta Nea.
The information reported by Ta Nea was in the context of the Egyptian president meeting Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and Cypriot President Nikos Anastasiades during a tripartite meeting in Nicosia on Wednesday.
The Egyptian president’s concern is not only about Ankara’s involvement in all regional conflicts, but especially about the way Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan “now engages and openly uses the Islamic factor.”
In this context, the Egyptian president warned “of a wave of terrorists in Greece in the future”.
Ta Nea referred to a confidential briefing that took place during the tripartite meeting where it was agreed “Mr. Mitsotakis and Mr. Anastasiadis keep it high on the agenda, not only tripartite contacts but also of their own moves towards third countries.”
Today’s Ta Nea article comes as yesterday Greek City Times reported yesterday how Abraham Kasparian, a Syrian-born Armenian journalist, revealed through a leaked conversations between Idlib-based terrorists, that Turkey is now recruiting Syrian mercenaries to be sent to the Greek border.
Kasparian says that as Turkey is hosting thousands of Syrian militants, Ankara is planning another location to “burn” them as Azerbaijan will not be enough to get rid of them all….
