Turkey and Greece need trade, not tanks, says EU negotiator

"Turkey and Greece need trade, not tanks, says EU negotiator

Aegean neighbors Turkey and Greece need schools, hospitals and economic cooperation instead of extra tanks and weaponry, Turkey’s chief negotiator for EU talks said Monday.

“Turkey and Greece need no extra tanks, war planes or submarines; they need new highways, schools, hospitals, trade and cooperation in the economy,” Egemen Bağış said during a speech in Ankara at the opening meeting of the Turkish-Greek Joint Economic Committee, which is designed to boost trade and business links between the two countries."
