Greek, Turkish Ministers To Sign Hot-Line Agreement

By DINA KYRIAKIDOU, REUTERS, ATHENS, Greece


The Greek and Turkish foreign ministers will sign an agreement for a military hot-line to deflate crises when they meet in Istanbul on June 10, just weeks after their military jets collided over the Aegean Sea.
The two NATO allies, which came close to war in 1996, hope to capitalize on their cool-headed handling of the fighter jet crash with other tension-easing measures, such as possibly expanding a summer ban on Aegean war games.
Long at odds over the divided island of Cyprus, territorial and human rights issues, the two neighbors have seen relations improve in recent years with Athens declaring its backing for Ankara’s EU accession efforts.
But tensions remain and the two have agreed to set up a direct line between the NATO operation centers in Greece’s Larissa and Turkey’s Eskisehir towns to avoid flare ups.
"We expect (the ministers) to sign the agreement for setting up a hot-line," Greek Foreign Ministry spokesman George Koumoutsakos told reporters.
Ministry sources said Greek Foreign Minister Dora Bakoyanni and her Turkish counterpart Abdullah Gul will also discuss expanding a July-August moratorium on military exercises in the Aegean Sea to four months and maybe include overflights.
LESSON LEARNT
Analysts said the collision of the two fighter jets while shadowing each other in disputed air space taught both sides a lesson that tensions can easily prove disastrous.
"It’s time for both sides to understand that they may disagree on some issues but they don’t have to declare it on a daily basis," said Theodore Couloumbis, director of the ELIAMEP think tank.
Analysts say that a slow-down in Turkey’s EU-prescribed reforms that is threatening to derail its accession efforts is also worrying Greece, which fears political instability may grip its large Muslim neighbor if the EU suspends negotiations.
Commerce and tourism are booming, with bilateral trade set to more than double to 5 billion euros ($6.3 billion) in the next two years. Opinion polls show most Greeks want disputes resolved at international courts.
"No one wants tensions. Another Aegean incident would be bad for summer tourism," said Dogu Ergil, a liberal political scientist at Ankara University. "People understand now that good relations are good for business."
Bakoyanni, appointed in a February reshuffle, will be the first Greek foreign minister to visit Turkey since her predecessor Petros Molyviatis went to Ankara in April 2005.
That visit was seen in Greece as an embarrassment after the Greek press reported air space and territorial waters violations by Turkish jets and ships. It also put on hold a planned visit by Greek Prime Minister Costas Karamanlis to Turkey.
"The focus is on the positive aspects of bilateral ties. The visit is expected to give a boost to the relationship. It’s a confidence building exercise," said a senior Turkish government official who declined to be named.

Não estou não...

Se tu é outro espertalhão sem respeito, então fica com tua grande sabedoria que faz com que pessoas sem respeito e medíocres se tornem grandes como o nosso diguiníssimo presidente Lula!!!!!!!!!
Esta é a mentalidade de muitos que são apaixonados por assuntos militares, mas se quer passaram por lá de verdade, que ficaram durante um ou mais anos no quartel para aprender a ter respeito... Vá um dia a uma base aérea e veja como os pilotos de caça são aclamados como ídolos ou até mesmo deuses pelos anjos da guarda(mecânicos) ou em um regimento de blindados para ver como o comandante é aclamado e respeitado!!!!!!!!!!!!
