Greece threatens Turkey with ICJ

The Greek Prime Minister added, in an interview with the Greek News Agency, that the EU will take steps to protect its strategic interests and those of its member states.

He added that Greece and Turkey must negotiate, and in the event that this does not happen, the settlement of the dispute will be through the ICJ, stressing that the Turkish measures have undermined the unity of NATO throughout 2020.

It is noteworthy that the visit of Turkey's Erdogan to the Varosha region in the north of Cyprus a few days ago, which was a luxurious tourist resort and became a "ghost town" within the buffer zone established by the United Nations and divided the island after the Turkish invasion of the north in 1974, which sparked widespread international criticism.

In that context, the spokesperson for the UN Secretary-General confirmed that the organization followed developments in Varosha with concern, and said that the UN position has not changed, and the parties are invited to avoid unilateral measures.

Greek Cypriots also demonstrated in the southern half of the island, at a crossing along the buffer zone, against the Turkish president's visit.
