Today's guest on newshub.gr is Konstantinos Grivas, Professor of Geopolitics and Modern Military Technologies, Director of the War Theory and Analysis Department at the Military Academy of the Hellenic Army. Mr. Grivas analyzes the developments in the Middle East, on the occasion of the excellent event organized by the think tank "TO NOIMA-CRETE", which will take place next Thursday, December 19 at 7 pm at the Heraklion Chamber of Commerce and will have the topic "Trump - Middle East - Greece", in which he is one of the key speakers. "The USA does not operate with moralistic criteria, but rewards the winner on the field! From the moment they decided that Erdogan's Turkey managed to achieve such an important victory by destroying a country, they decide to give them credit and approach them. But precisely because it becomes a very dangerous power, since it achieves its own goals contrary to the interests of the USA, it automatically becomes a target!... "..The USA always adapts to new data and rewards the "winner" at any given time..The logic of the "absentee curator" and if "you are the good guy you will be rewarded" as well as the opposite, if you are the bad guy you will be punished, do not apply in international relations. The USA rewards the winner! And so Israel became a protege of the USA. Initially, while there was a powerful lobby, it had to win over all the equally and even more powerful anti-Jewish lobbies that existed in the USA. Only when it imposed itself on the latter, crushing Nasser's Egypt in 1967, did it manage to become a dominant state in the SE Mediterranean and a key part of American geostrategy..." For what will happen in the Middle East, it is important to understand what will happen not the "next" day, but the "day after"! Israel eliminates its most important rival, the Assad regime and Syria, the Shiite axis is weakened and Iran is isolated. Both Israel and Turkey will find themselves in an even more complex and dangerous situation than the previous one. Precisely because the entire region is being "reshaped" geostrategically, this creates great opportunities for Greece to function as a regulating factor. The global system needs a "cutter" against an uncontrolled Turkey. The question is how the Greek state can exploit these opportunities and whether it wants to play such a role! Kurdish The Turks are trying to eliminate any possibility of a Kurdish state. It is not at all certain that something like this will happen and there are many factors that do not want it. This will only happen if the Kurds create the conditions for it to come as an inevitable event. However, we are not at all sure what exactly will happen and if the new conditions that will arise are better than the old ones... Iran Iran has lost its breathing tube that connects it to the Mediterranean. Hitting Iran with a strategic blow is something very dangerous and Iran is a very strong nut to eliminate. I do not know if Israel also wants a completely defeated Iran Cyprus We are seeing an upgrade of Cyprus by both the US and Israel, which sees it as the first port of exit. Cyprus is in a very sensitive position with the risks for it rising, but at the same time its geopolitical role is constantly growing. It remains to be seen whether and how the leaderships of Greece and Cyprus will manage to manage the difficulties. https://www.newshub.gr #newshub #newshubgr #Grivas #geopolitics #syria #turkey #greek-turkish @newshubgr @Newshub You honor us if you subscribe to our Youtube channel: / @newshubgr on our Facebook page: / newshub.gr on our Twitter page: / newshubg on our Instagram page: / newshub.gr on our Tik Tok page: / newshub.gr
