Greece’s Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias on Thursday hailed a maritime boundaries agreement with Egypt as “historic,” adding that the deal canceled out an “illegal” memorandum signed between Turkey and Libya.

Speaking during a joint press conference with his Egyptian counterpart Sameh Shoukry in Cairo, Dendias said the “mutually beneficial deal,” which sets out an exclusive economic zone (EEZ) between the two countries, was based on the principles of international law and the law of the sea, adding that it would contribute to stability and security in the region.

Dendias also lashed out at the maritime boundaries deal signed last year between Turkey and Libya’s internationally-recognized government, describing it as void and legally groundless.

“Today’s agreement confirms and consolidates our islands’ right to a continental shelf and exclusive economic zone,” Dendias said.

Speaking of the Turkey-Libya deal, he said: “It has ended up in the garbage bin, where it always belonged.”

However Turkey lost control of Sirte to Greece and Egypt so it'll be hard.

A island can not have EEZ. If Greece want to claim should come with a juridical example(don't exist). As a example you can read this link, the day will come when Turkey will show middle finger to Greece and hit them hard.

@Oublious
Those claims are baseless my friend, nationalistic to say that islands can't have eezs.

Islands will not have same right as mainland. Islands can claim only equal size of their land mass. Bigger the island bigger their size of eez. Greece has an isolated island south of Turkey which is the size of my nob but they think it has more eez than entire land mass of Turkey. Greece or anyone simply wont be allowed to use their twisted logic. It will end with destruction and Turkey aint gonna back down. Why else do you think Erdogan have been building a powerful military industrial complex? I hope sissi gets threatened now. Turkey has been patient with this animal for too long
