Turkey’s decision to declare two marine parks, in the Northern Aegean and the Eastern Mediterranean, is unilateral and illegal, Greece’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

The Greek-Turkish rapprochement process is moving within a framework of step-by-step efforts to maintain a calm climate and manage issues that could provoke tensions in the immediate future. Naturally, the significant distance separating the two countries on the major issue of maritime delimitation defines both the framework and the limits of this challenging undertaking.
