🔴 Erdogan is lashes out out over European Court of Human Rights landmark Yalcinkaya ruling that found Turkey in violation of multiple rights, says he won't implement it even though Turkey is party to the Convention and Turkish Constitution says ECHR rulings must be enforced

🔸 This shows once again that Europe is not respected and that Turkey believes there will be no consequences to this, showing that the rules set out by Europe have no validity, mere words on paper of a weak political block

🔸 No sanctions will be put in place, Turkey's accession to the EU wont be affected, military and/or economic deals wont be impacted.........

🔴 "Sweden is paying for the mistakes in the asylum policy, something that might affect Greece"
>https://archive.is/l5NaJ

🔸 Sotiris Delis is a Greek who used to e part of the Swedish Parliament between 2014 and 2019

🔸 As he explains, immigration failed since the immigrants did not want to integrate into Swedish society

🇸🇪 "They came here and gradually started to form gangs, using their welfare to start illegal activities such as trafficking of drugs, weapons and sex trade. We are talking about entire families now and not individuals, who pay 12 to 14 year old children to plant bombs, blow up houses and kill innocent people [...] unfortunately, crime is at an all-time high, since every day now we have explosions and murders"

🇬🇷‼️Sotiris also warned that this might soon become a concern for Greece as the country has taken people from several places that have a different value base and like in Sweden, started setting their own rules instead of accepting the current ones

🔸 This saturday, 61 illegal immigrants were rescued 9 nautical miles of Serifos, the boat called the authorities and requested rescue since it was adrift

‼️ 2 smugglers were arrested

👉 2/2

🇹🇷🔸 Erdogan called the UN intervention "unacceptable": "Turkey, as a guarantor power, will not allow illegal actions in Cyprus and expects a humanitarian solution, preventing the Turks living in Pyla from reaching their homeland is neither legal nor humane, the UN peacekeeping force appeared to be biased by its intervention in Cyprus"

🇹🇷🔸 The "president of occupied cyprus" Ersin Tatar: "The Greek Cypriot side is trying to turn the "mixed" village of Pyla into an entirely Greek Cypriot village, we will not allow it"

🇹🇷🔸 Turkish MFA: "The statement of the United Nations Security Council is outside the reality of the field. Instead of making a positive contribution to the problem, this statement makes the process more difficult. The notification about the road works was made some time ago. The intervention of the Blue Helmets (...) caused the tensions"

🔸 In only 3 days, 8500 illegal immigrants reached the Italian island of Lampedusa

🇮🇹 Italy's PM, Georgia Meloni made a statement in video, saying the pressure from illegal immigration is unsustainable, calling for EU support and new measures as well as saying there will be detentions and deportations for those entering Italy illegally (youtube video with auto translate)

🇩🇪❌🇫🇷 Germany stopped receiving illegal immigrants from Italy, something that was criticized by Macron who said there must be 'European solidarity'

🇪🇺 EU's plan is as predictable as possible, essentially focusing more on assisting the immigrants than solving the problem, involving the UNHCR, transfers to other EU countries and also more FRONTEX presence but with the goal of improving initial processing, identification and "orientation"
