They already are. They have been since 1974 and the reason given is that no treaty can displace the right of self defence.
and can they defend themselves if terggy decided to take them.
Try it and see, put your money where your mouth is, if you have the balls.
They have never had the balls to fight Greece.
They only start wars they know they will win. A war with Greece is too much of a gamble for them because Greece is no pushover. Take a look at their military. They can hold their own.
in 74 they mobilised and moved troops to trakya, and then what happened. why did they not do us a favour and sort out terggy then. what is the difference between then and now.
The question should be why Turkey didn't sort Greece out? Even at Imia you landed troops but then had to leave with your tail between your legs because Greece was about to turn the joint into glass at first light. And one of the extraction helicopters was shot down too but Turkey said it was due to mechanical failure to save face.
