Abstract

Disputed islets question between Greece and Turkey has
started with an accident occurred on 25 Dccember 1995 near
Kardak/Imia Rocks in the Southeast Aegean Sea. After a few days
of silence. diplomatic notes were exchanged between the parti es in
which both Greece and Turkey claimed that they were the real
owner of the said rocks and blamed the other for following a
revisionist policy. These made the crisis more complex. The crisis
which escalated during the first days of January 1996 has settled
down with the mediation of third parties (especially the USA), and
Greece and Turkey has added the issue to their long-list of existing
bilateral disputes.
Before starting to analyse the status of the islands. islets and
rocks of the Aegcan Sea causing the dispute. it must be said that
the related islands. islcts and rocks which are the subject of the
dispute are especially the ones lying in the Southeast Aegcan
region which are known generallyas South Sporades that also
include the Dodecanese Islands.
