SYRIZA-PS, in a statement by the Press Office, condemns the Turkish announcement of Determination of two marine parks in the Aegean and the Eastern Mediterranean. The party characterizes energy as illegal and blatant violation of international law of the sea.
The announcement points out that the Turkish movement, with one park located between Samothrace and Lemnos and the other blocking Kastelorizo is ‘Impression of Ankara’s revisionist narratives’. SYRIZA blames the New Democracy government of ‘Dangerous degradation of Turkish challenges’ and calls on her to take all the necessary diplomatic actions to defend the country’s sovereignty.
Finally, it calls on the government to present a constituted national strategy to tackle the revisionist Turkish doctrine of the “Blue Homeland” and to seek Turkey’s commitment to a dialogue on the basis of international law.
