La Grecia annuncia una mappa di pianificazione spaziale marittima, che probabilmente innescherà una crisi con la Turchia poiché copre le controversie aree esclusive della zona economica, come Kastellorizo

I don’t see why it would cause a crisis in Turkey. It’s not like they aren’t aware there’s a dispute. 

Greece drawn HD Turkiye drawn by 5 year old kid. Detail wise.

According to international law borders should look way different all over the world yet they don’t in most cases. But UK and other fully Western nations do give away islands if told to do so. Some countries claim they have rights to waters way outside their land areas.

This is my 100-meter island, so all the sea around it is mine

What exactly is under dispute here? 

Turkey doesn’t have much of an EEZ claim in the Aegean because nearly all of the islands right off the Turkish coast are Greek territory and that basically cuts it off under the established rules that most countries use for determining EEZ.

This is why the Turks have come up with convoluted reasons why their mainland should have an EEZ, but the islands off their coast (which are Greek territory) should somehow be ignored. 

This idea is pretty obviously motivated by a desire for territorial gains, not by any sort of consistent rule. I understand that the Turks want more resources, but they don’t have much of a leg to stand on when it comes to claiming an EEZ that crosses into Greek territorial waters.

Meanwhile the Spainish EEZ despite having islands and enclaves at the Moroccan main land

I wonder when Greece will think I am a part of their maritime plan. Would you like my garden as a port?

You can’t declare EEZ to block some other nation’s access to a shared sea by stationing troops on inhabitated islands despite of Treaty of Lausanne and international law, that you love to mention. If you want to cripple Turkish maritime trade, you need fight it first. And we know how this goes very well. So cry, cry, cry and declare EEZ. Everybody’s gangsta until things get serious.

On the contrary. It shows which parts are officially demarcated ΕΕΖ and which are not.

Looks like a student thesis map…no an official maritime spatial map of Greek gov.

And is base on seville map eez….

so its made on UCLOS standards.

With blue stripes is demarcated ΕΕΖ

West XE 4 is EEZ Greece- Italy

East-south, between XE 3-XE 2 is Gr-Egypt EEZ boarders.

OP want trigger people and make pro-turkish propaganda.

Turkey make crisis year by year because voted Casus Belli against Greece since 1996…..

and disputes what signs over the years.

This is both unreasonable and unlawful. Europeans who support Greeks unconditionally are ignoring the truth due to their hatred of Turkey knowing very well they wouldn’t accept this for their own country. I don’t have to explain why this is unreasonable. But it is also against international law. Turkey hasn’t ratified UNCLOS and no matter how many comedic maps Greeks draw, Turkey has no obligation to abide by it. In fact any pressure to force UNCLOS upon Turkey is against international law as ratification of international treaties are based on state consent.

Suddenly, map of Canada

For a second there, i thought this was a chatGPT-generated map of Canada

Edit: oh i shouldve read the comments before posting.

Turkey is not a member of this agreement; therefore, it cannot be bound by it. Additionally, many of the member countries do not have a coastline, and those that do do not face such a complex situation. There are only two regions in the world with such a complicated situation: the Aegean Sea and the East China Sea. In both regions, the parties have disputes because the agreement in question is inadequate for such special circumstances. Turkey and Greece should reach an agreement between themselves, but neither side is doing so.

Turk bot

Though it was a canadian map for a second here.

That’s a very heavy title. And then you crossposted it to r/turkey for brigading. Why are mods allowing such blatant brigading all the time?

Disputed only by Turkey. Much like in Cyprus, international law falls fully and unambigously on the side of the Greeks.

Also don’t forget that while Erdogan will bitch about this unfair international standard in the Aegean, he fully capitalizes on it in the Black Sea where it falls in Turkey’s favor.
