Disputes, claims and settlement proposals related to the territorial sea issue in Greek-Turkish relations

Abstract

This master’s thesis aims to analyze, in detail, the issue of the extension of Greek territorial waters more than six nautical miles in the Aegean Sea, which can be accepted as an issue that constitutes the basis for other maritime disputes between Greece and Turkey. There are undoubtedly numerous studies on this topic. Thus, this research, while analyzing both the extent of the Greek territorial waters dispute and the problem related to the delimitation of the maritime boundaries between Greece and Turkey, aims to provide settlement proposals, and in this respect presents new approaches to the said conflicts.
