Minister Riyad Malki has ruled out the EEZ delimitation between Palestine and Turkey, according to a statement made by the Palestinian diplomatic mission in Greece. Mr Malki made it clear that “there is no thought at the moment of an EEZ delimitation agreement with Turkey” and added: “We have borders with Egypt, Israel and Cyprus, not with Turkey”.
Palestinian Ambassador Marouane Tumbashi said that this clarification was made several times to the press here in Greece as well as during a press conference held on May 19 at the embassy. He also reiterated that Palestine respects international law without exception as well as the “UNCLOS” law (which, as he notes, “we co-signed in 2015 despite the ongoing challenges and attacks of Israel on the sovereignty of our land and sea”).
Ambassador Tumbashi added that “we seek to upgrade our relations with all the countries of the Eastern Mediterranean, always in accordance with the UN resolutions and our mutual interests for the preservation of Peace, Prosperity and Security for all people”.
