Retired General Konstantinos Floros, the former Chief of General Staff of Greece, made scandalous statements against Turkey during a live broadcast program in his country. Floros's remarks once again highlighted the extent of Turkish fear in Athens.
TARGETING TURKISH-GREEK RELATIONS
In the broadcast where topics such as Turkish-Greek relations, the Greek defense industry, and the effects of wars in Ukraine and the Middle East on the region were discussed, Floros targeted Turkey, stating, "Turkey's claims have not diminished. They are trying to obtain what states have achieved through war without fighting."
SCANDALOUS WORDS: IF THE DOG BREAKS ITS LEASH...
Floros went even further in his remarks towards Turkey, adopting a brazen tone. The Greek general stated, "Our neighbor's dogs are barking. If the dog breaks its leash, we will shoot it in the head; it will tuck its tail between its legs and run away," making a scandalous statement.
"TURKEY IS OUR ENEMY, WE DO NOT HAVE THE POWER TO CONFRONT THEM"
Referring to his time in office, Konstantinos Floros argued that the armed forces must use force when necessary. "As part of my duty as a commander, I tried to implement this. Turkey is our enemy, a threat to Greece. We do not have the army or the power to confront them," said Floros, openly expressing his concerns about Turkey's regional influence.
DEFENSE INDUSTRY ADMISSION: WE HAVE FALLEN BEHIND
Floros also acknowledged Greece's deficiencies in the defense industry, stating, "Our defense industry exists only in name. We have fallen behind; we cannot produce what we need, which is why we are buying from abroad."
