The head of the main opposition CHP party in Turkey, Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, has threatened with an invasion of the Aegean islands.

The debate over Greek islands in the Aegean flared up in the Turkish Parliament, with Foreign Minister Mevlout Tsavusoglu asking the opposition to cooperate with the government. Indeed, he listed the three alternatives for resolving the issue, including war.

Migrant and refugee flows to the northern Aegean islands rose sharply in September, with over 2,400 people arriving on the islands since September 1, authorities reported on Monday.
