ISTANBUL – Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is threatening Greece with emerging tensions in the eastern Mediterranean on the eve of its forces starting army training in the region.
Turkey and Greece, both NATO members, have been embroiled in a hot fuel and oil dispute in the region since Turkey deployed an exploration shipment last month.
“Like Turkey and the Turkish people, we are in a position for all odds and all consequences,” Erdogan said in a televised confrontation in Istanbul.
Turkish defense officials have announced that five days of army training will begin in the separatist republic of northern Cyprus, an entity identified only through Ankara.
NATO said this week that Greek and Turkish leaders had agreed to participate in technical talks on injuries between their navies.
But Greece later said it had not accepted the talks, which led to Turkey’s accusations that the EU country avoids dialogue.
Greece and Cyprus have accused Turkey of violating its sovereignty by drilling in its waters.
But Erdogan made it clear that he would not compromise, saying, “Turkey is in a position to share any kind (of power resources) as long as it is fair. “
On 10 August, Turkey deployed the ship Oruc Reis and a flotilla escort of warships in the waters between Cyprus and the Greek islands of Kastellorizo and Crete.
The ship’s stay in the disputed waters lasted 3 times.
Greece responded by conducting naval training with several EU allies and the United Arab Emirates, not the smallest that Turkey conducted between Cyprus and Crete last week.

Sudan’s interim foreign minister said the United States had conditioned Khartoum’s removal from a list of states sponsoring terrorism to the normalization of diplomacy with Israel.
“Even if it is the will of the Sudanese street, it is vital that the situations established for normalization are met,” Omar Qamar al-Din Ismail told sudanese newspaper Al-Tayyar, according to Israel Kan’s public broadcaster.
Ismail says Sudanese leader General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan discussed the situation on the scale of U. S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo Pompeo in Khartoum last month.
“Conditions revolve around the question of what economic benefits Sudan will gain and when it will be removed from the terrorism list. Pompeo said the management will talk about this with the Israeli side,” Ismail said.
He also said sudan’s transitional government does not have the strength to take a resolution such as normalizing relations with Israel, echoing comments made through the visit of Sudanese Prime Minister Abdullah Hamdok Pompeo.
Sudan has been widely discussed as the next Arab country that could normalize relations with Israel after the United Arab Emirates agreed to do so under an agreement negotiated through the United States.
Police closed several streets in central Jerusalem before the weekly demonstration opposite Prime Minister Netanyahu outdoors in his official apartment in Jerusalem.
Cars will not be able to access the domain around the Place de Paris, which is located next to the Prime Minister’s Office.

The standardization agreement between Israel and the United Arab Emirates will be explained as a “peace treaty” and will have legal prestige to the Jewish state peace agreements with Egypt and Jordan, the Walla news website reports.
Citing unidentified Israeli and U. S. officials, the news site says the request to grant prestige to the settlement treaty was made through Israel, the joint scale of the Israeli and US delegations in Abu Dhabi this week, as the United Arab Emirates accepted the request.
Officials say Israel sought the agreement to be a peace treaty so that both sides were more concerned and that the agreement would have to be ratified through the Knesset and the UAE Federal National Council.
Unlike Egypt and Jordan, Arab countries with which Jerusalem has ties, Israel and the United Arab Emirates have never been at war.
The report also quotes Israeli officials saying that there is still no deadline for the rite scheduled for the White House, but that it will take a position in the coming weeks.
A few thousand protesters began marching for the third consecutive week from the bridge of agreements on the front to Jerusalem to Paris Square, where they will meet with the rest of the anti-Netanyahu protesters.
Although the march is approved, Jerusalem police have legalized it for more than two weeks.
The protesters, some dressed in suits, bring Israeli flags and a giant pink submarine, the latter referring to the so-called submarine issue, in which several of Netanyahu’s affiliates face charges, the prime minister himself is not suspicious.

A poll across the Twelfth Channel shows that Naftali Bennett’s Yamina religious and right-wing party maintains its new popularity, and Bennett is the last in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as the Israelis’ selection for prime minister.
It is also that the right/ultra-Orthodox block is emerging at the expense of the arab block in the center left.
If elections were held today, according to the survey, Netanyahu’s Likud would win 31 seats, followed by Yamina with 19; Yesh Atid with 15; Common List (Arabic) 15; Blue and White via Benny Gantz; Yisrael Beytenu 8; Shas 8; Unified Judaism of Torá 7 and Meretz 6.
(If MP Ofer Shelach were to win his planned leadership war opposed to Yair Lapid, his Yesh Atid would be reduced to thirteen seats, with the two most divided seats between Yisrael Beytenu and Meretz).
The effects add up to 65 seats for the right/ultra-Orthodox block, 47 for the center-left Arab block, and Avigdor Liberman’s Yisrael Beytenu between the blocks. However, Bennett of Yamina has indicated that he will not present Netanyahu as prime minister next time. .

The survey, conducted through surveyor Mano Geva, surveyed 511 respondents and has a margin of error of 4. 4%.
Meretz MP Yair Golan said he was marching tonight in opposition to Prime Minister Netanyahu because he “corrupts everything around him,” the country added.
“We have an inflated and fearful government. He hasn’t been together in a month, maybe he’ll meet tomorrow. This is not how a government operates in an emergency scenario and all this happens for a single explanation of why: a corrupt prime minister who corrupts around him: his party, the right and the entire state of Israel,” Golan told the Times of Israel when asked why he was here.
Golan is on the steps of Jerusalem.
