Greece recognizes Turkish Maritime Jurisdiction, gets permission!
On July 21, Greece issued navigational notices regarding the activities of the Italian-flagged R/V IEVOLI RELLUME cable-laying vessel, some of which enter the Turkish Maritime Jurisdiction Area.
Turkey immediately issued objection-based navigational notices regarding the issue and announced that permission must be obtained from the authorities of the Republic of Turkey in order to conduct work in areas within the Turkish Maritime Jurisdiction Area.
On July 22, the vessel in question was warned by Turkish authorities not to enter the Turkish Maritime Jurisdiction Area and was blocked by Turkish warships.
As a result of the coordination that was carried out later, a request for permission was made and the Ministry of National Defense also allowed work to be carried out at the specified coordinates.
The cable vessel, which completed its activities under the escort of Turkish Naval Forces ships, left the Turkish continental shelf.
The Ministry of National Defense made the following statement regarding the issue: "We would like to thank the Greek and Italian authorities for respecting and cooperating with our maritime jurisdiction areas."
Greece gave up its claims in the Mediterranean. And the Seville map is dead.
