Abstract

One of Lhe issues of contenLion beLween Turkeyand Greece is the
intention of Lhe lalter LoexLent İls territorial waters. This issue is of great
impartance bccause it is rclated Lothe delimitation of LheGrcck airspace and
the Aegcan conLinental shelL Obviously, any extension of the Greek
territorial sea would bring further parts of the Aegcan Sea and Lhe Aegcan
continental shclf into the Greek sovereignty. A possible extension of the
Grcck territorial waters to twelve nautical miles would alsa aııow Grecce to
exercise sovereign righLs over a greater part of the Aegcan airspace. it is,
therefore, evident that Turkish interests in the area would be very much
affecLed by a decision of Grecce to exLent iL')terriLorial sea in the Aegcan.
