5 July, 2019Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu stated that the Greek Cypriot threats are meaningless.
Referring to statements by Greek Cypriots and threats of so-called arrest warrants for Turkish drilling ship Fatih’s crew in a live interview on TRT Haber news channel yesterday, Çavuşoğlu highlighted ‘They know they cannot take steps against us, and if they dare to do so they will get their response like in the past’.
Stressing that Turkey notified the UN and the EU over its activities in the Eastern Mediterranean, Cavusoglu said all steps taken by Turkey are in compliance with international law and underlined ‘Only Turkey will decide what to do on its continental shelf’.
