Asked on the plan for the deployment of Turkish troops to Libya, Varvitsiotis said that Erdogan (Recep Tayyip, Turkish President) is playing with fire and the only thing that he achieves with this move is his further isolation.
"The reactions against this Neo-Ottomanism are strong and come from everywhere. Erdogan is playing with fire and causes reactions not only from Greece but from all the players of the international system" .
