KiNgBrAdLeY7: In a sense... Should Turkey get Greece now as a "gift", with all its debts and whatnot in the picture, interest payments and whatever else, total destruction of Turkey is ensured!
I guess it might even be a better experience currently living in Greece than in Turkey. In Greece it is relatively peaceful and there is democracy and freedom of press. Turkey is making war on its own people, the media, the kurds, Iran and Russia while also facing bombings scaring tourists away and the crazy president still has time for having a word with the ambassador about a small (2 minutes) satire that appeared in German TV featuring the president singing a nice song where it is mentioned among other thing that all people writing unpleasant things will get locked up (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2e2yHjc_mc). (It's not even a satire but rather a description of the actual state.) And corruption is surely as strong in Turkey than in Greece.
