Mitsotakis: an agreement with Cairo on the delimitation of maritime zones

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis called for a common understanding with Egypt regarding the demarcation of maritime zones in the region on Thursday evening during a press conference after the summit in Brussels, sending a message in favor of legitimacy in Ankara.

Asked about Cairo’s unilateral delimitation move, ignoring the illegal Turkish-Libyan memorandum, the Greek Prime Minister said that “there is a consensus with Egypt on how we understand how we should delimit maritime zones in the Eastern Mediterranean.” “.

Mr. Mitsotakis recalled that “Greece and Egypt have already carried out a partial demarcation, which is fully compatible with international law, so it is recognized by all. Unlike the Turkish-Libyan memorandum, which is not recognized by anyone. Therefore, we all consider it – when we say everything, I mean the entire European family – invalid and a text that has virtually no legal force,” he stressed.
