Greek Defense Minister Nikos Panagiotopoulos criticized Ankara's revisionist policy in the region.

Allies are listening and understanding the extent of Turkey’s revisionist illegal behavior, he said in an interview with the Cypriot news channel RIK, adding that Greece’s policies are paying off.

The sovereign right of each country to organize the defense of its territory, to take steps to defend its territory when it feels a threat, and this threat is considered real, he added.
