The Turkish defense minister, Hulusi Akar, never stops provoking. In a new statement he made on Thursday at the Air Force Maintenance Plant he said:

“We have 780,000 square kilometers in our homeland. We are talking about 780,000. And we also have the Blue Country 462,000 square kilometers. We also have the sea and the bottom of the sea. The seas! The Black Sea, the Aegean Sea, the Eastern Mediterranean and among them Cyprus. So these areas are in the area of our interest and they are areas that we are responsible for ensuring peace and tranquility”.
