PC:Communist Greece = Finlandized Turkey

Had Greece became communist either though the communists winning the civil war or being captured by the Soviet Union , would Turkey have been finlandized or would it sill join NATO
 
Unlikely to be Finlandised, still had a land border with the Western powers via Iraq (British Protectorate) while Syria was not a Russian ally at that stage. By the time Iraq overthrew the monarchy and Syria swung towards allegiance with the USSR, Turkey would have been a NATO member for over ten years.
