1) Turkey with Cesme did not claim to do hydrographic research in the territorial waters of Greece as the NAVTEX that was issued concerns international waters 2) The Oruc Reis did underwater (not hydrographic) research in the summer-autumn of 2020 by placing sonar cables in an area of...

The Law of the Sea can resolve the dispute between Turkey and Greece in the Aegean. I do not think that the Aegean is an exception. Here was found a solution for the Spratly Islands between China & Philippines and no solution can be found between Turkey and Greece in the Aegean? The fact that...

You will not find exact geography anywhere in any of these cases or in any of the others that exist. In all these cases there were disputes but they were resolved on the basis of the Law of the Sea, also no island was given reduced influence in the territorial waters. There have been cases where...

I am not saying that there should be no negotiations, but always in accordance with the Law of the Sea and not with the expansionist mentalities of Turkey. Unless the Turkish-Libyan Memorandum is a sign of good will.......! By what legal right did Oruc Reis conduct underwater research in the...

I did not say to define the Exclusive Economic Zone unilaterally and voluntarily but according to the Law of the Sea and according to the middle line method wherever this is required.

That is, in Alaska, the US has created an American lake; The whole area over there is territorial waters because Alaska has so many islands that they are connected to each other. That is, what happens with the Aegean islands. I did not say to turn the whole Atlantic Ocean into a British or...

You do not face any aggression from Greece. The Greek Navy did not go to do hydrographic research in the Bosphorus or the Black Sea as you come to do in the center of the Aegean! Mr Tsipras does not know what he is saying because he is completely unrelated to these issues. So do not bring me Mr...

1) Canada-US confrontation over the Gulf of Maine 2) Tunisia-Libya Confrontation(1982) 3) Canada-France confrontation(1992) where the EEZ was limited to a very narrow lane but the 12 nautical miles remained 4) Norway-Denmark confrontation(1993) where the midline was again modified taking into...

The settlement of the Exclusive Economic Zone and the territorial waters with the method of the middle line is an aggressive behavior of Greece? Since when is this absurdity valid? That is, Oruc Reis's unilateral research activity (on the seabed with sonar that is illegal) last summer was not...

When the Exclusive Economic Zone (200 nautical miles from the coast) of Greece occupies (sits above) part of the Exclusive Economic Zone of Turkey then this problem is solved by the middle line method. The territorial waters of Greece can be extended (according to the Law of the Sea of 1982) to...

The research vessel Cesme through NAVTEX that has been published is doing hydrographic research in international territorial waters, so far there is no irregularity. However, this area belongs to the Aegialitida Zone of Greece and it is forbidden to conduct explorations in the marine subsoil...

You are right as the frigate will determine the anti-aircraft system that will be placed on it. I wrote about the C-Dome system as it was the naval version of the Iron Dome. The issue is how the whole process will move because a lot is said but little is done. Personally, I believe that due to...

The bad thing is that there is this classic mentality to open many different proposals and end up not in a real market but in a gossip that does not lead anywhere. If Greece really got 50% of what it says it will buy, its deterrent power would be fine.

Greece and Israel have decided to work closely on defense with Jerusalem having decided to release weapons that provide a quality advantage. In recent days, Greek officials have been informed about a number of programs. The focus is on drone and UAV control systems using advanced technology. In...

The Greek Army and the General Staff of the Army are examining something beyond the "classic" Excess Defense Articles (EDA), the second-hand systems released by the US Armed Forces. For example, the OH-58D Kiowa Warrior reconnaissance helicopters, as well as the 1200 M1117 ASV Guardian, are...

In economic terms, Saudi Arabia has a special power in the region. Of course, we will see the geopolitical position of Saudi Arabia in more detail with Biden's policy as he now has a strange attitude towards them lately. Saudi Arabia is considered the country with the most money spent on weapons...

From nothing it is not bad but to adequately protect the territorial integrity of the country in this area we need something better than the 1200 M1117 ASV Guardian. These ASVs are used with 20 years of service. We need something better in terms of technical specifications and with fewer years...

Because the Greek government is making strategic choices for the United States as a NATO member. The Greek MIM-104 Patriot PAC 3 battery will be sent to Saudi Arabia as part of geostrategic aid between the two countries against Iran. But we as Greece do not have good or bad relations with Iran...

Normally the MIM-104 Patriot PAC 3 had to stay in Greece. What is the role of an anti-counter-ballistic system in Saudi Arabia? I do not think there are too many arrays to take them for a walk in third countries.
