AHC Communist state covering Balkan and Anatolia

Have a communist state(atleast nominally) covering the area shown on the map below, with a pod in ww2.

Union of Bulgaria and Yugoslavia goes ahead. Communists win the Greek Civil War and join them. At some point Turkey being in a much weaker position, goes Communist and the new government enters into the union.

I could see a stronger socialist movement in turkey and the Balkans growing throughout the late 19th century and in the chaos of an alt WW1 managing to seize power some sort of socialist Union of the Balkans and Anatolia.
 
Some events that could lead to such a country.
  • Yugoslavia - Bulgaria union
  • Greek Civil War (Greek Communists win perhaps with help from communist Balkan nations)
  • Albania might be pressured into joining the Balkan communist state
Still Turkey is difficult to fit into this new country. Perhaps atleast Turkish Thrace could be conquered by the Balkan communist state. Maybe the Soviet Union would need to help foment communist sympathy and support a armed struggle for Turkey to go communist?
