The Impact of US and French Military Presence on Turkish Strategies
April 29, 2025
Turkey's military plans for a limited invasion of Greece have been undermined by the increased military presence of the US and France in the area. According to a report, Turkey's strategies for seizing territories have been drastically limited due to the Greece-US and Greece-France alliances. There is growing concern in Turkey about the concentration of US troops, which increases the risk of direct conflict. Defense agreements have shifted the balance of power and restricted Ankara's strategic options.
