Not really. Greece is increasingly aligned with the US and Israel, in part because of the potential to become a lucrative pipeline transit hub for Israeli oil and gas resources.

Maybe it’s just posturing, maybe wishful thinking, but trusting Turkey is a fool’s errand.

Well, if history is a teacher, then not necessarily.

Remember the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact? Hitler needed to secure his flank while he avenged the Versailles treaty. Still, he never intended not to take out the Soviet Union who were the bigger enemy.

He just wanted to make some temporary peace in the East for the purpose of circling round back to that later, to quote Jen Psaki.
