EU urges Turkey to end renewed drilling in East Med
|
[EN.ALGHADEER.TV] High Representative of the European Union
...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing...
(EU) for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Josep Borrell, on Sunday urged The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the decaying remnant of the Ottoman Empire...
to immediately end renewed drilling activities in the Eastern Mediterranean.
"I call on the Ottoman Turkish authorities to end these activities immediately and to engage fully and in good faith in a broad dialogue with the European Union," he said in a statement.
The statement was issued after Ankara announced on Saturday that it will resume drilling activities by the Yavuz vessel, an ultra-deepwater drillship, in a maritime zone that has been delineated by Cyprus and Egypt.
Borrell said the move "regrettably fuels further tensions and insecurity in the Eastern Mediterranean" and "runs counter and undermines efforts to resume dialogue and negotiations, and to pursue immediate de-escalation."
In an urgent meeting convened by Borrell on Friday, the foreign ministers of EU member states considered the recent naval mobilizations by Turkey would "lead to greater antagonism and distrust" and supported Borrell to re-establish dialogue and facilitate re-engagement with Turkey.
The High Representative will also prepare "options on further appropriate measures in case tensions do not abate," according to the Council of the EU.
On Aug. 7, Ottoman Turkish President His Enormity, Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First
 ...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey. In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms. That's 968 more than in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really more important...
said his country resumed drilling activities in the eastern Mediterranean, one day after Egypt and Greece signed an agreement on the demarcation of the maritime borders between the two countries and setting up an exclusive economic zone between them.
