Crossfire War-=Rapid Fire News-Southeast Europe Theatre: Turkey-Greece Increase Military Cooperation

Athens: Turkey-Greece have, as expected, increased their military cooperation and will under no circumstances take their marching orders from Brussels. This is not something that has just been planned but has been years in the making ever since most NATO and European Union governments agreed to recognize Croatia's crooked-twisted boundary cutting off Bosnia and Serbia from the Adriatic Sea forcing both of them into war in 1991.

NATO's offensives against Serbia reached their height in 1999 with a 78 day air campaign which encouraged both Athens-Ankara to realize these were projections of power directed at the entire Balkan region. 2006 Greece-Iran signed security agreements with Serbia and in 2017 the Turkish news service Hurriyet Daily News reported the meeting in Ankara between the Turkey-Iran Army Chiefs of Staff.
