Late at night, the Turkish Coast Guard became alarmed when they saw a shape suddenly emerging from the Mediterranean Sea. Soon, it is discovered to be a warship...and an Indian warship! A message is quickly sent for it to 'stay put'. In the morning, amid a tense atmosphere in Turkiye, an emergency meeting of the government and the military was held. Afterwards, the Indian warship was sent an 18-hour ultimatum, "Return, or you will be responsible for any further action." However, the Indian warship does not respond. In fact, until today, Saudi Arabia and Turkiye have considered this special area of the Mediterranean Sea their fiefdom, intimidating the coastal countries, prohibiting their vessels and those of other countries from entering and leaving that area. However, this time, it is an Indian warship, 'Trikhand', that has come within range. The next day, Turkish warships aggressively surrounded the Trikhand and issued another ultimatum. This time, an answer came in a single sentence: "The Trikhand is on its way, following international rules, and has not encroached on any country's border, hence the question of retreat or return doesn't arise." Meanwhile, three more Indian warships equipped with 'BrahMos' (Brahmos) arrive behind Trikhand. By then, Turkey, citing NATO, is attempting to stir up trouble across Europe. This Indian destroyer, Trikhand, built at Russia's Kaliningrad Shipyard, was travelling with its entire fleet to Greece, where it was to participate in joint maritime exercises with Greece and France. With only half an hour remaining for the ultimatum issued by Turkiye, France issued a statement stating that the Indian warship fleet was on its designated route and was not encroaching on any country. Seeing its strategic and international position weaken, Turkiye tried to stir things up, but all its efforts were in vain. And, the Indian warship fleet proudly set off for Greece. Here, the cynics of the moment may continue to gloat about Modi, but under his leadership, India is respected and seen as a major power worldwide. India stepped out of the Indian Ocean and controlled China's bullying in the Red Sea, and today stripped Tรผrkiye of its self-esteem in the Mediterranean Sea...
