Turkish newspaper publishes images of Greek military drills on Lesvos

Turkish daily Aksam has published photographs of what it says are Greek military drills on the island of Lesvos in the eastern Aegean. 

Titled “The final warning to the Greeks over Lausanne,” the story comes amid recurring Turkish claims – most recently from the country’s foreign minister, Mevlut Cavusoglu – that failure to demilitarize the Aegean islands will bring their sovereignty into question.

The report, which also features satellite images allegedly showing military camps on Lesvos and details about the forces stationed on the island, states that Turkey is “not bluffing over the issue of the islands’ sovereignty.”
