Nikos Apelaios II proposed that Greece announce an extension of its territorial waters to 12 nautical miles west and south of Crete, strengthen its naval presence south of the island and in the eastern Mediterranean, and accelerate hydrocarbon exploration in Greek blocks based on the median line. He also called for a decisive response to seismic surveys or drilling based on the memorandum in areas which, he stated, overlap with Greek legal claims. Regarding Greece's response, he suggested a public statement that the ratification does not produce legal effects, that the memorandum remains void and does not affect Greek rights, as well as exerting pressure through the EU and a common stance with the EU, Egypt, Cyprus, and Israel. He mentioned that any different response from the last two proposals would pleasantly surprise him. #Ελλάδα #Μεσόγειος #ΝαυτικήΠαρουσία (translated)
e-Defence reported, citing Reuters, that the Libyan parliament approved the Turkey-Libya memorandum of 2019 for the delimitation of maritime zones with Turkey and rescinded the decisions of 2020 that rejected it and called for a cessation of relations with Turkey. It linked the development to the replacement of the long-standing president of the Libyan Parliament, A. Saleh, by A. Nabili, a former head of the parliamentary friendship committee with Turkey. It was noted that the change occurred with the agreement of the Libyan National Army (LNA) and the Government of National Stability, which were described as the two opposing sides in the country. e-Defence characterized the decision as a blow to Greek interests and noted that the lack of ratification by the Libyan parliament was a key argument against the memorandum. It argued that the memorandum remained illegal under international law because, in its view, it did not take Greece into account as a neighboring state and violated the rights of Greek islands to continental shelf and EEZ, according to UNCLOS. It added that while Greek foreign policy was based on legal arguments, Turkish policy invested in showcasing hard power and argued that the developments in Libya demonstrated which approach prevailed. https://t.co/lL3A1AkPbp #Λιβύη #Τουρκία #Ελλάδα (translated)

Jimmy Green commented on yesterday's match, writing that Bandy could cover the point guard position better than Grant. He added that, with Bandy at point guard, Jerian had shown good signs at the 2 position after a long time. Regarding Hayes, he said he had shown weaknesses in defense against forwards with guard characteristics. He assessed that this could pose a concern for Panathinaikos in Greek derbies, as Olympiakos would use Fournier there and Bonga would not be available to limit him. In Europe, he added, Bonga would take on such players. Finally, he noted that there was an issue against teams that played isolation and assessed that it could be addressed by adding a "goalkeeper" player with quick feet. #paobc #μπάσκετ #αθλητισμός #Ολυμπιακός (translated)

Chris Avramidis argued that Kimberley Guilfoyle's farewell text revealed that her mission in Greece aimed to serve American interests. He stated that she presented deals for the export of American liquefied natural gas through the Vertical Corridor, the expansion of opportunities for American businesses and investments, and the strengthening of American energy influence and leadership in Southeast Europe as successes. Avramidis described the Vertical Corridor as detrimental to Greek households, whether it is implemented at 50% or 10% by Greek brokers. He argued that hundreds of millions of euros would be directed towards American interests, instead of reducing the energy burden for households, and said that the project was presented as aid to Ukraine, while, according to him, it represented a profitable business opportunity for companies seeking to expand their influence. He also claimed that Guilfoyle threatened that the Greek government could be overthrown if it did not meet the desires of the U.S., and compared this logic to what, he said, happened in 1965 and 1967. He also referred to published allegations that she was asking for bribes and argued that her departure was not enough as a response. He raised the issue of democratic legitimacy, asking who decided that the needs of Greek households had to be subordinated to American interests, and mentioned, along with American multinationals, the large contractor AKTOR. #Γκιλφόιλ #αμερικη #Γκιλφόιλ #αμερικανική_κυριαρχία #Ελλάδα (translated)
The account The Little Wine of Tsou presented the Greek army at Dorylaion in northwestern Asia Minor in 1921 and mentioned that the Byzantine army would gather there before every campaign. It described Dorylaion as a city and capital of the eponymous district, in the Phrygian plain, next to the river Tembris (Porsuk), at an altitude of 790 meters. According to the post, it was located 250 kilometers west of Ankara, 90 kilometers northeast of Cotiaeum, and 350 kilometers southeast of Constantinople. #ΕλληνικόςΣτρατός #ΜικράΑσία #Δορύλαιο (translated)

Amalia wrote that if diplomacy had developed differently in late 1940 or early 1941, the Soviet Union could have attacked Greece while it was fighting Italy. She argued that the German-Soviet pact did not define spheres of influence in the Balkans and that Stalin was particularly interested in Bulgaria. According to her post, on November 25, 1940, Soviet diplomat Arkady Sobolev conveyed a proposal for an alliance in Sofia. Amalia stated that the USSR offered Bulgaria military support in case of threat, support for its territorial claims in Greek areas, non-interference in its internal politics, and free grain and oil. In return, she claimed, it sought to establish naval and air bases in Varna and Burgas, while Stalin asked Hitler to recognize Bulgaria as part of the Soviet sphere of influence. Amalia argued that the Comintern, in a message signed by Georgi Dimitrov, called on the Bulgarian Communist Party to mobilize politicians and the public in favor of the proposal. She estimated that Soviet support for Bulgarian claims would require an ultimatum to Greece and, in the event of refusal, an invasion by Soviet and Bulgarian troops. In the post, Hitler prevented the agreement, warning of a potential Sovietization of Bulgaria and promising the Bulgarians the same Greek territories without war. Amalia noted that King Boris rejected the Soviet proposal and that Bulgaria joined the Axis in March 1941. #Ιστορία #ΕλληνοϊταλικόςΠόλεμος #ΣοβιετικήΈνωση (translated)

Andreas Stalidis argued that 808 significant violations of the Prespa Agreement had been recorded by the authorities of Northern Macedonia, while in practice, he said, there were many more. He cited examples such as the country's president having sworn in as president of "Macedonia" and that both she and the prime minister had issued dozens of statements under that title. Stalidis also referred to a photo of the president of the "Macedonian Academy" and the consul in Canada, whom he said appeared to be dancing with the Vergina flag in front of a map of "Greater Macedonia" that included Greek territories. He added that the violations had been highlighted for years through questions in Europe, a bill proposal in the Parliament, and public interventions, without, in his opinion, any substantial mobilization. Referring to an official protest by the Greek embassy to the authorities of Northern Macedonia after a banner with the Vergina flag and an irredentist map was displayed at a basketball game, Stalidis said that the intervention was correct, but questioned why it was done so late and if it was related to the elections. He called on the government to abolish the Prespa Agreement and to bring the bill proposal to the Plenary, which, he mentioned, had been submitted and remained in the Parliament for 21 months. #ΣυμφωνίαΠρεσπών #Μακεδονία #Ελλάδα (translated)
The author wondered if the incident in Eleusis had received even 1% of the publicity that he believed it deserved and whether it had been mentioned in the Greek media. He argued that the 17-year-old was blind in one eye and that his identity as a nationalist, rather than as a person serving the system, did not favor the highlighting of the incident. For those he described as supporters of the system, he used derogatory language. #Ελευσινα https://t.co/onK2Sw6Prc #Ελλάδα #ΜΜΕ #Ελευθερία (translated)
