Ten Minutes On... Resolving Greek and Turkish Differences
This week, we dive into the latest meeting between the Greek and Turkish foreign ministers, who discussed ongoing differences and explored potential areas for cooperation. While diplomatic dialogue is a positive step forward—especially compared to past military confrontations—will it be enough to truly resolve the complex maritime issues between the two nations? In this episode, I examine why dialogue alone may not suffice, given the broader ideational and structural factors at play.
Join me as we look into the longstanding and shifting dynamics between Greece and Turkey over the past few decades. I'll also link to my earlier article on the maritime dispute for those who’d like a deeper background on this issue.
