Greece Reduces Air Space to 6 Miles

Spilyotopulos said in his historical statement about the air space; If territorial waters are 6 miles, then the air space will be 6, in general.

However, the Greek air space was increased to 10 miles in 1931, it was broadened for having a 4-mile opportunity against the aircraft of enemies. This is a national act. We can shift to 9 or 6 miles. That Turkey said, “Once Greece increased its air space up to 12 miles, this will be a casus belli”, was wrong. No one, right now mentions this. We are in 2004. There is no need to use force.

Spilyotopulos said that they left behind the period of tension and that they supported the membership of Turkey to the European Union.

He said; We can solve our problems through international and bilateral agreements. For instance, shelf continent is one of them. Let’s go to the International Justice Court in The Hague for this issue.
