Said Gingeras: “For Ankara in the long term, the deal serves its bigger goal of having a more assertive presence in the Aegean and the Eastern Mediterranean,” that Erdogan wants to establish regional hegemony. “Turkey wants to lead us into a debate about all issues, not only demarcation,” said Syrigos from the ruling New Democracy party. “No government in Greece could ever accept that, it would fall the next day.”

Militia member close to ICC-sought Al-Werfali shot dead
A militia member loyal to rogue military commander Khalifa Haftar has been shot dead in an attack in central Benghazi. Residents in the Al-Birka area of Benghazi woke up to a new round of clashes in their neighbourhood on Tuesday after two militia factions -both loyal to Haftar- exchanged fire with various weaponry. The deceased, identified as Ahmed al-Aribi and nicknamed Hamadika, was known for his close ties with Mahmoud Al-Werfalli, a senior military figure who was allied with Haftar. Before his killing in March last year, Al-Werfalli was on the International Criminal Court and Interpol list for committing war crimes and carrying out summary executions. According to local sources, the clashes erupted in central Benghazi after a force of the Saiqa militia led by Saif Asnedel stormed the headquarters of the 20/20 group of the militia Tariq bin Ziyad.
