Turkish Press: 'Anti-Turkey Axis' Behind Dendias-Kats Meeting

The Turkish press is framing the Dendias-Kats meeting as part of a broader effort to encircle Turkey by Greece and Israel. Newspapers such as A Haber claim that Israel, increasingly isolated due to the situation in Gaza, is seeking a military alliance with Greece, fueled by their anti-Turkish stance. Hurriyet reports that the Greek-Israeli convergence is driven by fear of Turkey, while Sabah portrays Greece as a recipient of Israeli protection, an 'Israeli umbrella'. CNNTurk focuses on the potential transfer of F-35 technology, hinting at a strategic dependence of Greece. Overall, the Turkish side interprets the meeting as evidence of an anti-Turkey axis and expresses suspicion about the intentions of Greece and Israel.
