Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias on Wednesday ordered the immediate delivery of a demarche to Turkey over its new illegal Navtex, as well as the briefing of Greece’s allies and partners about Turkey’s ongoing illegal behaviour, a foreign ministry announcement said.
“With the new illegal navtex that Turkey has issued, it announces the continuation of its illegal seismic research in the period 11-23 November in an area within the Greek continental shelf in the Eastern Mediterranean, continuously violating the international Law of the Sea and undermining the peace and stability of the region,” said the foreign ministry.
“In other words, [Turkey] is trumpeting that it intends to continue ignoring the international community and the recommendations of the European Council to avoid such illegal actions and respect international legality,” underlined the Greek ministry, concluding: “Greece again condemns this provocative behaviour, which makes any prospect of constructive dialogue even more distant, and calls on Turkey to immediately revoke the illegal Navtex.”
