Are you sure you are being neutral here? I'm pretty sure the Turkish army was the oppressor, at least in this case... and what Greek junta?

> Turkey has NATO's most powerful conventional military on this side of the Atlantic

Conventional military means nothing. Turkey can't even close the Bosporus in these times of war because of Russian pressure. Just read the news.

By the way I sound like a typical "reformed former citizen who hates their roots", I know. But I actually love the country, just not the politics.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_junta

It collapsed just 3 months after the Cyprus events https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1974_Greek_legislative_electio...

The junta was gone, but NATO countries, and Turkish state had to live together ever since.
