The Turkish Foreign Ministry accuses Greece of trying to enforce its “maximalist claims” in the EU

OR Turkey launched accusations against Greece and the Republic of Cyprus for … infringement of international law and disturbance of regional peace and stability because of their “maximalist claims” that they tried to pass to the EU during the Summit in Brussels.

Turkish Foreign Ministry spokesman Odzu Ketseli answered a question about the results of the European Union leaders’ summit and the support of Greece’s position on the position of Greece turquoise.

A Memorandum that the Turkish Foreign Minister comments on “fully in line with international law” and calls on the EU “to invite all its members to comply with international law instead of adopting allegations that do not have legal effect”.

The announcement of the Turkish Foreign Minister:

The results approved at the Summit of the European Union (EU) leaders (EU), which took place on June 26, 2025, show that Greece and the Greek Cypriot administration continue their efforts to impose their maximalist claims in the EU, which are contrary to international law and the principle of justice.

The Memorandum of Understanding signed between Turkey and Libya in 2019 on the demarcation of maritime jurisdiction in the Mediterranean is an agreement that is fully in line with international law, proving that our country will never allow its legal rights to be violated.

EU’s politically motivated, biased statements about a sensitive issue with legal and technical dimensions, such as the demarcation of marine areas, do not serve regional peace and stability.

In this respect, the EU should invite all its members to comply with international law instead of adopting claims that do not have legal effect.

Turkey will continue to defend its legal rights and interests in the Eastern Mediterranean in the context of international law with determination.
