Twenty years after the Imia issue brought Greece and Turkey on the verge of an armed conflict and created the “grey zones in the Aegean Sea”, Ankara claimed again on Wednesday that the Greek islet of the Dodecanesse was “Turkish territory.”

This statement came by Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu in a written form while he was answering a question of opposition MPs asking about “the status of the islands, islets and rocks in the Aegean.”
