It argues the islands were ceded to Greece on the condition they remained demilitarised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18.5px; text-align: justify;\">Greece maintains Turkey has deliberately misinterpreted the treaties and says it has legal grounds to defend itself, including a long-standing threat of war if Greece extended its territorial waters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18.5px; text-align: justify;\">Greek-Turkish differences are about water rather than land. They currently each have six nautical miles (11km) of territorial water in the Aegean. The&nbsp;<strong>UN Convention on the International Law of the Sea (UNCLOS)<\/strong>&nbsp;states that states may claim up to 12 nautical miles (about 20km).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:14px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\" align=\"center\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"850\" height=\"469\" src=\"https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Maritime-zones-source-wwwunescoorg.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7008\" srcset=\"https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Maritime-zones-source-wwwunescoorg.png 850w, https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Maritime-zones-source-wwwunescoorg-300x166.png 300w, https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Maritime-zones-source-wwwunescoorg-768x424.png 768w, https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Maritime-zones-source-wwwunescoorg-585x323.png 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18.5px; text-align: justify;\">During the Balkan Wars of 1912-13, Greece absorbed the Ottoman Empire&#8217;s islands of Limnos, Samothrace, Lesvos, Samos, Chios, and Ikaria. It was officially awarded sovereignty over them in the Treaty of Lausanne of 1923.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18.5px; text-align: justify;\">Another treaty&nbsp;<strong>drawn up in London in 1914<\/strong>&nbsp;had made Greek possession of the islands conditional on their demilitarisation. According to Turkey, the&nbsp;<strong>Lausanne Treaty<\/strong>&nbsp;makes reference to the 1914 treaty; it implies the same conditionality.
