Even though no one cares about Greece anymore as it implodes under German occupation…it is refreshing to see Tsipras show some signs of his old self shine through.
Via Zerohedge…
Either Greece, having fallen off the face of the geopolitical event map now that it is a vassal state of Frankfurt and Brussels, is in dire need of media attention and as a result the Greek prime minister has decided to intervene directly in the biggest diplomatic scandal to have gripped the international community in years, the one between Russia and Turkey, or the intern manning Tsipras twitter account is about to join the roughly 25% of the Greek population that is unemployed.
1/4 To Prime Minister Davuto?lu: Fortunately our pilots are not as mercurial as yours against the Russians #EUTurkey

2/4 What is happening in the Aegean is outrageous and unbelievable #EUTurkey

3/4 We’re spending billions on weapons. You–to violate our airspace, we–to intercept you #EUTurkey

4/4 We have the most modern aerial weapons systems–and yet, on the ground, we can’t catch traffickers who drown innocent people #EUTurkey

Perhaps this is just Tsipras’ opening salvo in Greece’s own money-for-refugees negotiations with the EU, having seen the dramatic success Turkey just experienced when moments ago it was awarded €3 billion for funding ISIS flooding Europe with Syrian refugees.
That said, any and all comparisons between current geopolitical events rapidly spiraling out of control and in the aftermath of the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand, are purely arbitrary.
Update: Tsipras (or rather his Twitter PR person) already deleted the tweets but it was too late as they have been clearly saved for posterity.
