All the RoC requires is a few Gun Boats, or Fast Attack Craft.

We’ve already got small patrol gun boats but they’re not good enough against the Turkish navy on their own. If it comes to a confrontation our best bet is to use our squadron of Mi-35Ps loaded with Exocet AM39s.

This what we actually need-and is available free of charge

Good God, Turkey must be shivering in her boot as we speak, what will she do?
God help us all.

Or maybe this:

I meant to say that Cyprus could do with a few Fast Attack Craft or corvettes such as the Hellenic Navy's La-Combattante Class armed with either Exocet or Penguin SSM.

They are small, fast, carry a big punch, and only require a crew of some 40 odd sailors..

But as I said before, when it comes to US Oil and Gas interests, the Saratoga will come free of charge.

If I were you I'd use 'straight' sailors.

Hellene? Straight? now you are hoping for miracles!

Yes, I think I've seen these boats moored at a base near a village on the south coast, a village with some excellent fish restaurants. I had something a little more substantial in mind.

Whatever is needed in this area must be done. To do nothing sends the wrong messages and is negligent.

In fact to do something is reckless and negligent. There will not be a shooting war over this; to needlessly squander billions of euros on warships that are not necessary would be insane.

"Do Nothing" never the less it is one of the options when considering what to do in Prince2 for instance.

Helps them determine the wind direction...
