Christofis, Nikos, Baser, Bahar and Öztürk, Ahmet Erdi (2019) The view from next door: Greek-Turkish relations after the coup attempt in Turkey. International spectator, 54 (2). pp. 67-86. ISSN 0393-2729
Turkey’s recent slide into authoritarianism will have implications for its close neighbours in the West. Especially Greece cannot avoid negative spill-over effects. A coalition government comprising Syriza and Independent Greeks does not have an unconstrained set of policy choices in responding to this. Maintaining effective working relations is a paramount interest but achieving this is easier in principle than in practice especially considering the issues of asylum seekers and Turkish revisionism on the Lausanne Treaty. Unlike the two parties that dominated the Greek political scene after 1974, PASOK and New Democracy, the current government has little experience navigating choppy diplomatic seas with Turkey.
