New bellicose outburst by Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan against the West, in a speech addressed to his parliamentary group, saying that Western countries are overlooking Turkish achievements in the fields of energy, defense industry, and new technology.

With an eye on the elections, Tayyip Erdoğan is not stopping provocations against Greece. This time in his speech he celebrated the conversion of Hagia Sophia into a mosque, characterizing it as a second fall.

Recep Tayyip Erdogan, on the way to the Turkish elections which will be held on May 14 as was officially announced yesterday, is becoming a "difficult ally" for the West, and this cannot leave Athens in the role of a simple observer.
