Answer to new threats launched by Ankara On the occasion of the recent extension of territorial waters to 12 nautical miles in the Ionian, the Greek Foreign Minister relented. “The exercise of Greek sovereignty is not subject to any form of Turkish veto,” he said, urging Turkey to realize that, like all countries in the world, it is subject to international law.
The announcement in detail:
“Turkey’s unprecedented perception that it may threaten its neighbors with the use of force when exercising their legal rights is contrary to modern political culture, but also to the fundamental provisions of international law.
We urge Turkey to realize that international law and the values on which the modern international order is based are binding on all nations of the world. They are not applied selectively and it is the responsibility of the international community to defend them, since their violation indicates the greatest risks.
Turkey is bound by Article 2 (4) of the Charter of the United Nations, among others. If you have a different perception, let it express it explicitly.
In any case, we remind you that the exercise of Greek sovereignty is not subject to any form of Turkish veto. “
