President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s military actions and drilling operations in the East Mediterranean challenge the status quo and appear to be setting in motion new dynamics in the region.
Neighbour Greece is on high alert, raising its level of military preparedness. At the same time, there is a growing disarray within the European Union and NATO as to how to respond to what many Erdoğan critics see as his unlawful expansionism.
The key global player, the United States, is also preoccupied domestically, with widening political differences between President Donald Trump and traditional American state institutions, and the upcoming presidential election. Ahval Editor Yavuz Baydar discusses the current East Med crisis and future prospects with two prominent Greek colleagues, Pavlos Tsimas of Skai TV and Yannis Koutsomitis of Kappa News, along with Cengiz Aktar, a professor and political commentator for Ahval News.
