ANKARA, June 14 (Reuters) - Turkey signalled on Wednesday it was likely to seek financial compensation from Greece following a mid-air collision between two F-16 warplanes last month.
The crash occurred above the Aegean Sea on May 23. The Greek pilot was killed but the Turkish pilot bailed out in time. Greece and Turkey, NATO allies but ancient rivals, blamed each other for the incident."
