Greece v Turkey

Better than they ought to be. I can't see either of them backing down and there are plenty of countries who have a vested interest in taking the Turks down a peg or two.
 
You need money to fight a war and that is something the Greeks do not have and with the Turks superiority in the air Greece would never come out of it in a good way, even if the EU decided to help it's member out ( a highly unlikely scenario).
As two NATO countries, it is most unlikely to be an outright war, a skirmish over an island possibly but nothing more serious as NATO would call for an end to hostilities within hours.
Putin has the most to gain however, a falling out between NATO and Turkey and perhaps Turkey leaving the bloc would be a distinct advantage to the Russians.

France are selling 16 planes to Greece.

And yes. Putin is playing a poor hand very well.

In all sorts of spheres.
 
I just 'googled Greece V Turkey'

I prefer this answer from Trip advisor 😆

Is Turkey better than Greece?
Turkey is CHEAPER but Greece has ISLANDS. Istanbul is great, but Athens is pretty awesome too. ... Turkey has nice beach resorts, but they are part of the mainland. However, the truth is that in Turkey you will pay much less for the same product of service.

So basically it’s cheaper to be blown up in Turkey by a Greek bomb?

Than in Greece by a Turkish bomb?
 
It won't happen. The EU, NATO, Greece an Turkey won't let it happen. The only people with a vested interest are Putin ( behind the scenes), and - out in the open - Assad and Iran.
 
If the Turks bring in conscription we wont have any barber shops left - well apart from the load of Turkish illegals that is. Reckon my local Greek chef will ** around 300 of them Persians 😁
Unfinished buisness.
