Not a chance.” This comes ahead of diplomatic talks between Greek Foreign Minister George Gerapetritis and Turkish counterpart Hakan Fidan in November, focused on delineating continental shelves and exclusive economic zones. Greek officials stress that sovereignty issues are non-negotiable, raising tensions as both nations prepare for critical negotiations.
