Abstract

The Eastern Mediterranean refers in general to terms the Mediterranean coast of Türkiye, Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Egypt, Gaza strip and the island of Cyprus under the administration of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) and the Greek Cypriot Administration (GCA). The discovery of new energy resources in the eastern Mediterranean region has deepened the maritime influence disputes between coastal countries. The discovery of new energy resources in the eastern Mediterranean region has deepened the maritime influence disputes between coastal countries.
