BREAKING: Turkey is opening land and sea crossings to Europe for the NEXT 72 HOURS and Turkey will open the borders immediately. I wonder how many of the refugees over the next 72 hours will be Turks escaping Erdogan’s regime?
To all Turks wanting to escape Erdogan’s dictatorship, now is your opportunity - 72 hours. We will welcome you into Greece and even allow you to do a DNA test, something not allowed in Turkey, to prove that you’re Greek and have a right to live in Greece. We welcome you.
Are you a Turk and fed up with Erdogan? Escape now. You have 72 hours to leave before the dictatorship arrests you for criticizing sultan-wannabe Erdogan. Come to Greece and get a DNA test to prove you’re Greek and have a right to live in Greece and EU. https://t.co/006KnOgFwb
Interestingly enough, migrants (for now) are not heading to Greece. Tens of thousands from Edirne in Turkey's European province of Western Thrace are now heading in their tens of thousands towards Bulgaria.

Most are not Syrian but rather Afghani and Pakistani. ImageImageImageImage
Why is it that the overwhelming majority of illegal immigrants from Turkey to Greece/Bulgaria are usually male? Image

BREAKING: Greece has closed its land border with Turkey at Evros.

Unlikely many illegal immigrants will get to Greece via land now.
Only a handful of illegal refugees have entered Greece via the land border with Turkey that is now closed. Hundreds of illegal immigrants stuck in "no mans land" between Greece and Turkey.

ethnos.gr/ellada/91148_k…
Hundreds of illegal immigrants stuck in no mans land between Greece's and Turkey's land border. Greece is not allowing them in.

Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis has said "no illegal entries into Greece will be tolerated. We are increasing our border security."

Illegal immigrants trying to get into Greece are finding it difficult after Erdogan opened the gates for them to leave Turkey. So far only a very few have illegally crossed into Greece. ImageImage
Excellent point by the Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis. It was Turkey who helped destroy Syria, not Greece, therefore the refugees are not our problem.
“Greek government will send warships to the Greek islands in order to protect the EU's external borders.” - @andreasmoun
@andreasmoun Illegal immigrants are being arrested at the Greek border. What happened a few years ago will not be repeated in 2020.

@andreasmoun Greece has sent more armored vehicles to keep the illegal immigrants out. So far, only a very small handful have succeeded in illegally entering Greece.

pentapostagma.gr/ethnika-themat…
@andreasmoun "Greece has deployed fifty navy warships to protect the Greek islands & 10 helicopters to guard land borders against foreign invaders sent by the Erdogan regime. The army is at the northern border."

Erdogan's efforts to flood Greece has failed.

greekcitytimes.com/2020/02/29/gre…
Our military forces remain steadfast. For now, not a single illegal immigrant has entered Greece today. The Greeks are once again front line against invasion, just as we were in the Middle Ages against Arabs and Turks, protecting Europe without their help. https://t.co/eH1QxoIH1E
Why are some of these illegal immigrants trying to get into Greece are saying “Takbeer, Allahu Ackbar”? pentapostagma.gr/ethnika-themat…
Strong border control by Greece means that Erdogan’s trump card against the EU is taken away. He used the threat of refugees to make the EU more submissive, but if we stop this flow, he can no longer do that, which means he is more unwilling to get new refugees stuck in Turkey.
Greek soldiers shoot warning shorts against illegal immigrants trying to enter Greece from Turkey. #IStandWithGreece https://t.co/PgJl7Mzwtd
Support Greece against the hordes of illegal immigrants trying to flood in & use the hashtag #IStandWithGreece. We will not be bullied, intimidated or blackmailed by Erdogan just because he is failing in Syria & Libya for his neo-Ottoman project. Solidarity with border protectors ImageImageImageImage
Illegal immigrants trying to enter Greece are waving Turkish flags. Many of them are soldiers of Erdogan and want a neo-Ottoman Empire that is not coming back. #IStandWithGreece - do you? https://t.co/pjsbWZwV22
Exactly 2500 years after the Battle of Thermopylae where the 300 Spartans made their final stand against the Persian Empire, Greece now faces a new invasion led by neo-Ottoman wannabes.

We will not take one step backwards, nor will we be intimidated or blackmailed by Erdogan. Image
Are you sleeping safely and nicely in Europe tonight? This is another crucial night for not only us Greeks, but also for all of you Europeans as Greece once again keeps guard of the eastern borders of Europe, like we did 2500 years ago in Thermopylae.

#IStandWithGreece - do you? Image
We will not be intimidated or blackmailed by Erdogan. A Greek court has handed three-and-a-half year prison sentences to 17 of the 66 migrants arrested from Friday to 6 a.m. on Saturday for illegally entering Greece. All 17 were Afghanis #IStandWithGreece ekathimerini.com/250090/article…
Notice how they are not going to Bulgaria? This is Turkish asymmetrical warfare against Greece. Erdogan is a radical neo-Ottoman. He hates and will never forgive Greece for destroying the original Ottoman Empire and is attempting revenge. He is failing. https://t.co/fC5UVAlwBu
MAJOR: According to @andreasmoun (who you should be following), Greek special forces have been deployed to the border with Turkey to assist in preventing Greece being flooded with illegal migrants.

#IStandWithGreece - do you also stand with Greece against this invasion attempt?
@andreasmoun The overwhelming majority of illegal immigrants trying to get into Greece from Turkey are Afghani and Pakistani, not Syrian, and many of them are waving Turkish flags. #IStandWithGreece against the attempted invasion. Afghanistan and Pakistan have peace, so they should go home.
@andreasmoun You might ask why do I call it an invasion?

Erdogan has not hidden the fact that he believes Turkey should extend its borders to Greece's second largest city of Thessaloniki. Tens of thousands of immigrants are on Greece's borders, but not on Bulgaria's, which is also EU. Why? Image
”During these hours, our thoughts are on the side of our Armed Forces and Security Forces, who, under difficult conditions, guard our country's borders effectively and conscientiously. Thank you!” Greek Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias
Turkey says there’s about 80,000 illegal immigrants at the border and Greece says there’s 10,000 illegal immigrants at the border. Who do you believe and why? https://t.co/3d0VdU2ii3

Greek fishermen on the Evros river between the land border of Greece and Turkey are volunteering and patrolling the river from Turkey's assymetrical invasion attempt on Greece. #IStandWithGreece, do you?

A Syrian who was in a Turkish prison says on video that he was released from prison and told to leave Turkey. The ex-prisoner says "I will go to Europe and save myself."
#IStandWithGreece against this assymetrical invasion. Do you?

halktv.com.tr/gundem/sinir-k…
Enough is enough. As Turkish coast guard allows illegal migrants to flood the islands, the Greek coast guard are now going to start taking real action.

Locals on the Greek island of Lesbos are not allowing illegal immigrants to dock their boat. In 2016, the islanders were nominated for the Nobel peace prize. Now they have had enough after rape, theft & murder increased MASSIVELY, & churches were attacked
French President Macron says that he assist in Greek efforts against the illegal immigrants. This is not 2015/16. Greece will not be blackmailed or intimidated by Erdogan. https://t.co/qcQTDlPeWc
Europe, as you sleep tonight, these are the invaders that the Greek people are protecting you from.

#IStandWithGreece, do you?

Greek police on parts of the border with Turkey are launching blue paint at the illegal immigrants in order to immediately identify anyone who successfully crosses the border fence.

#IStandWithGreece

enikos.gr/society/705362… Image
People on Lesbos, once nominated for the nobel peace prize, have had enough of NGO's who coordinate with Turkish smugglers to bring illegal immigrants to their island, who increased crime. This NGO worker was attacked & had his camera thrown in the water.

Correction. The person attacked is NOT an NGO worker. He’s a journalist named Michael Trammer who advocates for open borders and makes demands on what Greece should do. It seems like he’s an NGO worker in everything but name. Image
Greek military over loudspeakers are telling the migrants that the land border is closed.

The message is being said in SIX different languages: Arabic, English, Urdu (Pakistan), Farsi (Afghanistan & Iran), Pashtun (Afghan region) and Bengali (Bangladesh).

They're all Syrians?
Illegal migrants trying to get into Greece have given up and are going back to Turkey in failure. This is the same failure Erdogan is experiencing in Syria and Libya too.

The Ottoman Empire is not coming back.

#IStandWithGreece, do you?

An illegal immigrant was shot in the throat by Greek guards and died, according to Turkish media.

Deputy Minister & Government Spokes Stelios Petsas says it is fake news despite the video.

Do you believe Turkish media or the Greek minister?

TRAGEDY! A boat escorted by the Turkish coastguard and carrying 48 illegal immigrants was overturned by the passengers, a common tactic used by traffickers to force a Greek coastguard rescue to take them onshore.

They did this today and a child drowned.

edition.cnn.com/2020/03/02/eur…
One major problem with the claim that Greek police shot dead an illegal immigrant is that Greek police at the border are not armed with guns that have live ammunition. They mostly have shields, batons and tear gas. ImageImageImageImage
The claim that the Greek police (who do not even carry guns with live ammunition) killed an illegal immigrant trying to enter Greece from Turkey is becoming weaker and weaker.
Jenan Moussa says the illegal immigrant trying to enter Greece from Turkey died from a rubber bullet shot by Greek police.

One problem, the use of rubber bullets is forbidden by law in Greece.

Even German Chancellor Angela Merkel, the architect of the original immigrant crisis in 2015 and Erdogan apologist, has denounced Turkey's actions.

She said that Turkey pressuring EU 'on the back of refugees' is 'unacceptable.'

reuters.com/article/us-syr…
EU migration commissioner Margaritis Schinas said to Turkey that 'no one can blackmail or intimidate the EU' by weaponizing illegal immigration.

dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8…
“The United States recognizes Greece’s right to enforce its laws along its borders,” a State Department official said.

ekathimerini.com/250099/article…
Illegal immigrants on the Greek island of Lesbos have trashed a Greek Orthodox Church. This is what we are trying to keep out of our country.

#IStandWithTurkey, do you? ImageImage
Greek Deputy Minister & Government Spokesman confirmed that Greek police did not fire any shots and the story that Greek police killed a Syrian refugee is fake news.

Image
Interestingly, NO media is reporting about the "murder of Abu Emad by Greek police" with the exception of Turkish and Chinese media.

Western media who usually love reporting things about refugees and illegal immigrants aren't even touching this very obvious fake news.
Europe, as you sleep well tonight, remember it is the Greek people who are keeping Erdogan’s hordes of illegal immigrants out of your countries. We will continue to do this, but do you stand with Greece? #IStandWithGreece Image
"If Erdogan wishes to leverage the refugees, then Europe should meet him head-on. European leaders should accept the Syrian refugees, but, for each one that makes it across the Turkish frontier, European leaders should return one Turkish migrant."

An illegal immigrant trying to enter Greece explains why he is not trying to go to #Bulgaria. ImageImage
When it was announced that Erdogan would open the flood gates for illegal immigrants to enter Greece, German cucks from NGO's arrived at the island of Lesbos. The islanders do not want to be cucked like Germans and told them to fuck off and go to hell.
Europe, as you wake up this morning, remember it was the Greek people keeping you safe from tens of thousands of these men flooding into your countries.

#IStandWithGreece, and if you do too, show your appreciation as my country struggles against an asymmetric Turkish invasion. ImageImage
These are the men keeping Europe safe from Turkish asymmetric warfare. They will not take one step backwards to defend Greece.

Erdogan might dream of a neo-Ottoman Empire but these men are stopping it in Europe as the Syrian Army is stopping it in the East.

#IStandWithGreece Image
MAJOR: OTTOMANS NOT WELCOME!

Men wearing Turkish military uniforms were caught when illegally entering Greece. Uniform was taken off. The Turkish flag & uniform was stepped on by Greek border protectors.

We will not allow invaders in

#IStandWithGreece

MAJOR: The leader of the Muslim community in Greece's northeast on the border with Turkey has said that "Greece has the right to defend its borders."

Turkey claims these Muslims in the border region are oppressed - lies of course.

protothema.gr/greece/article…
Like I said all along, Erdogan is targeting Greece, not the EU.

Erdogan reportedly assured the Bulgarian leader Boyko Borissov that Turkey "would honor its commitment not to allow migration pressure on Bulgaria." Erdogan also refused to talk to Greece.

BREAKING: Austrian Chancellor Kurz blasts Turkey for migration 'attack' against EU. Like I said in the previous tweet, this is not an attack against the EU, but against Greece.

We appreciate ALL the European solidarity though.

rt.com/news/482176-ku…
Erdogan is failing in his invasion of Syria.

Erdogan is failing in defeating heroes of the Libyan National Army by using Muslim Brotherhood terrorists.

Erdogan is failing in his asymmetric invasion attempt of Greece.

Erdogan is a failure.

Greek authorities say they prevented total of 5,183 people from crossing the Greek-Turkish border in 24 hours; also arrested 45 people – mostly from Afghanistan, Pakistan, Morocco and Bangladesh.

@greekcitytimes MAJOR!

Do you need anymore proof that Turkey is provoking Greece? Turkish border police are launching canisters into Greece.

I guess they're angry that the Greeks are doing such a good job in protecting their country.

#IStandWithGreece, do you?

Greece is united, more so than ever since the economic crisis began in 2008. Thank you for that Erdogan. Even pro-refugee & liberal opposition leader Alex Tsipras said “closing the border” with Turkey “was right.” Turkey failed in its asymmetric invasion. ekathimerini.com/250187/article…
Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis says “My duty is to protect the sovereignty of my own country. At the same time, Greece is also doing Europe a great service. The borders of Greece are the external borders of the European Union. We will protect them.” #IStandWithGreece Image
Europe, as you sleep tonight, remember that these are the Greek men protecting your countries from a Turkish asymmetric invasion. We will not falter, we will not take a step back, we will not be intimidated. However, let these men know that you support them - #IStandWithGreece Image
MAJOR: The Russian Defence Ministry said that the two thirds of these refugees trying to illegally get into Greece - that Turkey is pushing from temporary camps in Syria - are Afghans, Iraqis and Africans, not Syrians. m.jpost.com/Breaking-News/…
At least 3,000 protesters gathered in Berlin on Tuesday in front of German Chancellor Angela Merkel's official residence to demand the opening of the border between Turkey and the European Union (Greece). Protests were also held in Hamburg and Potsdam. dw.com/en/germany-tho…
Good morning Europe. As you start your day, just give a moment to the Greek border security who worked vigilantly all night to keep people like this out and you safe. Show your appreciation to the border security workers by hashtaging #IStandWithGreece. Image

MAJOR: Turkish units are throwing tear gas into Greek territory to try and disperse our border protection units.

We will not be intimidated.

Follow @andreasmoun for updates from the Greek-Turkish border.

Greek officials said that in a 24 hour period between 0600 Tuesday and 0600 Wednesday, 2,791 illegal attempts to enter Greek territory were prevented. 34 men from Afghanistan, Iran and Pakistan were arrested.

Turkey's asymmetric warfare on Greece is failing.

#IStandWithGreece
Europe is no longer accepting your blackmail Erdogan.

You failed in Syria.
You failed in Libya.
You failed with Greece.
You failed with Turkey's economy.

Your end is near.

#IStandWithGreece

The EU interior ministers will meet in Brussels today and it is expected they will pledge “all necessary measures” to prevent illegal crossings into Greece, according to a draft of their conclusions.

EU's Ylva Johansson just sayd that the "European Union's borders are closed and will remain closed."

Lesbos has less than 90,000 people but has over 30,000 refugees. Islanders were called inhumane by Shamnesty International, an international Atlanticist Intelligence arm. What is inhumane is Europe not helping the Greek islands by taking in more refugees. amnesty.org/en/latest/news…
As you sleep easy tonight Europe, remember these are the Greek men on the Greece-Turkey border protecting your cities from the spike in rape and terrorist attacks that happened in your cities during in 2015.

It appears that many of the illegal immigrants have given up trying to get into Greece. Another failure by Erdogan, just like his failures in Syria and Libya. #IStandWithGrecee https://t.co/npXu6p7msp
Not only the men, but also the women of Greece are prepared to do all it takes so that Erdogan's asymmetric war against my country is a complete failure.
As you wake up this morning Europe to start your days, remember that Greek border control had a very long night in the cold to protect your cities from illegal immigrants trying to enter the EU from Turkey.

Greek MP @AngelosSyrigos said: "Erdogan's destabilizing surprise against Greece has failed. In the coming days there will be systematic Turkish provocations in Evros and our islands. Turkey is looking Dead!"

We will protect our borders and win.

If you're in Turkey and you're trying to illegally enter Greece. Do not bother unless you want an express ticket back to your country of origin.

Turkey and the smugglers are lying to you and they're also stealing your money

#IStandWithGreece

Is there a more cucked country then Germany?

Old alliances are hard to break.

Germans trained the Ottoman Army who still couldn't defeat the Greek Revolution in 1821; 🇩🇪 &🦃were friends during WW1 AND WW2; and 🇩🇪 sends European money to blackmailer🦃.

Yesterday the US Embassy in Greece warned its citizens to stay away from the islands of Lesvos, Chios, Samos, and Evros land border with Turkey.

Today Turkey announced 1,000 special forces police to the border with Greece.

Does the US know of something?

As Europe begins to go to sleep tonight, we thank all those who have shown solidarity with Greece as we resist an asymmetric invasion from Turkey whose president has delusions of a neo-Ottoman Empire.

Thank you #Flanders!

#IStandWithGreece, do you?

Turkey is supplying long haired wigs to male illegal immigrants trying to enter Greece.

Why is that?

Are they trying to boost the number of "women" in photos to dilute the sea of men?

kathimerini.gr/1067714/galler…
Erdogan's asymmetric invasion of Greece is beginning to crumble and fail.

The Greek coastguard said today that in the past 24 hours, not a single illegal immigrant has successful reached a Greek island.

#IStandWithGreece

MAJOR! Syrian refugees to Greece?

Countries of origin of the 252 migrants and refugees detained in Greece so far, per Greek govt:

Afghanistan: 64%
Pakistan: 19%
Turkey: 5%
Syria: 4%
Somalia: 2.6%
Iraq, Iran, Ethiopia, Morocco, Bangladesh, Egypt: 5.4%

protothema.gr/greece/article…
The overwhelmingly majority of Greeks from all political persuasions support the Greek government's response to the attempted Turkish asymmetrical invasion of Greece.

Erdogan's attempts to asymmetrical invade Greece completely failed and he has given up for now.

Our front line border protectors of Europe did an amazing job defending our land border and islands.

Thank you for all the solidarity.

#IStandWithGreece

As you wake up and prepare for your day Europe, just keep in mind that Greek border security kept hordes of undocumented and illegal immigrants out of your cities today.

Show your appreciation to the security forces by hash tagging #IStandWithGreece

But I thought all the illegal immigrants were Syrian refugees?

The truth - 64% of illegal immigrants arrested in Greece were Afghan and only 4% were Syrian.

The Muslim minority in northeast Greece near the border with Turkey, that Turkey claims are "oppressed," came out and supported the Greek Army protecting our country from a Turkish asymmetrical invasion attempt. They gave gifts to the Greek security forces fonirodopis.gr/press/93602/sy…
Failing in Libya & Idlib, it appears that Erdogan will now try his luck with Greece. Using illegal immigrants to asymmetrically invade Greece failed. He is now mobilizing the Turkish military to our border.

We will deal with Ottoman-wannabes fearlessly.

MAJOR: Greece will extend its border fence with Turkey by 40km, in addition to the presence of about 4,000 police officers and soldiers in parallel patrols, helicopters, unmanned aircraft, message broadcasting & cameras for audio-video.

Greece is closed.

keeptalkinggreece.com/2020/03/06/evr…
It is us Greeks who've been defending Europe's border from the east for 2500 years.

We have often been backstabbed by the west but we will continue to defend our land that is the front line for Europe.

Ottoman-wannabes do not intimidate us.
