As residents of many countries work from home, they have avoided public transport to minimize their exposure to the outbreak and have changed their way of traveling within their cities due to major changes in local public transport services. Istanbul is one of the cities most affected by the pandemic in terms of the daily number of passengers using public transportation. For the first time since the pandemic started in Istanbul, the use of urban public transportation has decreased by more than 90 percent. The aim of this study is to examine the measures taken in Istanbul public transport in order to prevent the spread of the coronavirus pandemic.

  • Greek Deterrence of Turkey: Living to Fight Another Day
    Greek Deterrence of Turkey: Living to Fight Another Day by Emmanuel Karagiannis BESA Center Perspectives Paper No. 1,770, October 6, 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Greece is facing a serious security challenge from Turkey, a fellow NATO country. The recent deterioration of bilateral relations has generated suspicion and distrust in Athens. The upcoming exploratory talks are bound to fail. The Greek deterrence strategy is shifting significantly because the possibility of conflict is growing. Greece and Turkey are strange neighbors. They are bitter rivals with a history of armed conflict, but are both member-states of NATO. The list of bilateral issues between them has lengthened over the years, including the Turkish occupation of northern Cyprus, the status of ethno-religious minorities, the delimitation of territorial waters, the continental shelf/Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) and national airspace, and the problem of illegal immigration. Greek-Turkish relations hit a new low on July 21, when the Erdoğan regime announced its decision to send a seismic exploration ship near the Greek island of Kastellorizo. Ankara’s main objective has been to grab as much continental shelf as possible by preventing Athens from declaring an EEZ in the area. Kyriakos Mitsotakis’s center-right government rose to the challenge and mobilized its fleet to disrupt a Turkish oil and gas survey in what it deems the Greek continental shelf. This was the first time since January 1996, when the Imia crisis erupted, that Greece showed a clear willingness to use military force to defend its sovereign rights in the Aegean Sea and the Eastern Mediterranean.

  • Greece Announces Major Arms Purchase
    Greece announces major arms purchase As Mr Mitsotakis said at the TIF (Thessaloniki International Fair which is not being held this year due to the pandemic, but the venue as a podium for political declarations was kept).: “In recent years, the defense sector has experienced conditions of disinvestment, after a period of high costs and not always targeted armaments procurements. Well, it's time to balance needs and opportunities. It is time to strengthen the Armed Forces as a legacy for the security of the country, but also as the highest obligation to the Greeks who will bear the cost. It is the price of our place on the map. Today, therefore, I am announcing six emblematic decisions that multiply the power, functionality and effectiveness of Greek weapons.” The six decisions announced by PM Mitsotakis: 1. The Hellenic Air Force will immediately acquires a squadron of 18 Rafale fighter jets that will replace older Mirage 2000 fighters. As the Greek PM said these are fourth generation superior aircraft that “strengthen Greek deterrent power... in combination with the modernized F-16” 2. The Hellenic Navy is launching the process for the procurement of four new multi-role frigates, while at the same time, it will modernize and upgrade four existing MEKO frigates. Mr Mitsotakis left open, what these ships will be, and several countries are looking at the tender for their own shipyards, or design bureaus. The new ships will also be accompanied by four MH-60R (Romeo) naval helicopters. 3. The arsenal of the three branches is being enriched as a whole.
