Turkish President Erdogan Warns Greece Not To 'Go Too Far'

Anadolu Agency: 'If you go too far, price will be heavy,' Turkish president warns Greece  

Athens' occupation of Aegean islands 'not our concern,' President Erdogan says, adding: 'When time comes, we will do what's necessary. As we say, all of a sudden, we can come overnight'  

Amid tensions between Türkiye and Greece, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan urged Athens on Saturday to look at history, saying: "If you go too far, the price will be heavy."

"Greece, look at history, go back in time; if you go too far, the price will be heavy. We have one thing to say to Greece: Remember Izmir," Erdogan said at Türkiye's largest technology event, Teknofest, in the province of Samsun on the Black Sea coast.

Izmir is a province on Türkiye's western Aegean Sea coast that Ankara liberated from Greek occupation in 1922 as part of its War of Independence. Erdogan warned Greece, saying that Athens' "occupation" of Aegean Sea islands "is not our concern."
