THE DEMILITARISATION OF THE GREEK EASTERN AEGEAN ISLANDS THE CASE OF THE CENTRAL AEGEAN AND DODECANESEISLANDS
Öz
The purpose of this artiele is to address the question of
demilitarisation of the islands of Lcsbos (Mytilene), Chios. Samos,
Ikaria (Nikaria) as weıı as the Dodecanese Islands and their
adjacent islets. The demilitarisation of the islands of Lemnos and
Samothrace, which are attached to the Strait of Dardaneııes, will not
be discussed in this artiele but will be subject of anather.
In contrast to the Turkish pasition, this artiele argues that a
comprehensive interpretation of the Treaty of Lausanne reveals
that the appIication of the 'principle of reciprocity' aııows Greece to
maintain a military presence in the said islands relative to that of
the Turkish forces stationed on the coast of Asia Minor. This
argument is fundamentally different that those advanced by Athens
regarding the right of Greece to re-militarise its Eastern Aegean
islands.
