Greece and Turkey to wade into maritime issues

After a meeting at the UN between the leaders of Greece and Turkey, it appears talks to delimit the continental shelf and EEZ – the main issue on the table – could materialize. 

This was confirmed in a recent interview that Greece’s Foreign Minister George Gerapetritis, who will meet with his Turkish counterpart next month in Athens, gave to Kathimerini. 

Expert Constantinos Filis, the director of the Institute of Global Affairs and a professor of international relations at the American College of Greece, joins Thanos Davelis to break down what we should expect from these upcoming talks, and look into how this issue fits into the broader puzzle that is the Eastern Mediterranean.
