In today's world, one of the most fundamental strategies of states is to develop their competitive power by controlling energy lines and energy resources. Turkey, has high competitive advantage when compared to other countries especially in terms of geographic location. For this reason, Turkey has an attractive position in terms of the sharing of freight transport and having key role with maritime trade policies. Although maritime trade routes are legally free, such as transit and innocent passage, they are affected by the problem of sovereignty of sea areas. In particular, commercial routes to be followed by ships in controversial maritime areas have the potential to be influenced by a number of measures in favor of the coastal state in relation to the transition regime. Although in theory the freedom of transition is accepted, the conflicts between the coastal states in practice constitute an indicator of the big problems that can be experienced in the future. There are many world-wide problems in the coastal states such as territorial waters, continental shelf and exclusive economic zone. One of the most well-known problem is the ongoing territorial waters matter in the Aegean Sea between Greece and Turkey. In this study, the possible effects of the developments related to the limitation of territorial waters in the Aegean Sea to the maritime trade of our country and international maritime trade were evaluated. Within the scope of the research, in-depth literature was searched, the current situation was examined through maps related to maritime trade routes, and the possible scenarios were discussed and the study was terminated by presenting future measures and predictions.

The objective of this paper was to investigate the local distribution, abundance and population structure of Pagellus erythrinus, Pagellus bogaraveo and Pagellus acarne on the continental shelf and slope over a wide geographic area from Gibraltar to the Aegean Sea. The analysis was based on the data collected during six trawl surveys, from 1994 to 1999, carried out yearly in spring within the MEDITS EU project. P. acarne was mainly distributed on the continental shelf, with a relatively higher abundance in the western part of the Mediterranean basin, where the biomass indices of P. bogaraveo were also important on the continental slope. Throughout the studied area, P. erythrinus was mainly distributed on the continental shelf, with remarkable abundance indices in the eastern part of the Mediterranean and in Corsica´s waters. Mean total lengths showed a highly significant decreasing trend from the western to the eastern geographical sectors.

The present study concerns faunal composition and distribution of cephalopods in the southern Aegean Sea (35Ζ 13’ 19’’- 37Ζ 55’ 25’’ N, 23Ζ 00’ 15’’ - 28Ζ 15’ 37’’ E). Samples were collected from 708 hauls, obtained by an experimental bottom trawl net during eight surveys carried out in the summers of the years 1994-2001, as well as by commercial trawl net during four surveys carried out in September 1995, December 1995, May and September 1996. The hauls were performed at depths ranging from 16 to 778 m. A total of 34 species of cephalopod in 12 families were identified, including 11 oegopsid squid, 3 myopsid squid, 7 octopod, 3 cuttlefish and 10 sepiolid. Trawling with the experimental net resulted in the capturing of some uncommon pelagic species, such as Ctenopteryx siculaand Octopoteuthis sicula, which were recorded for the first time in the Aegean Sea. Most of the species showed a wide depth and geographical range. The species: Sepia officinalis, Sepietta neglecta, Sepietta obscuraand Sepiola rondeletiwere caught only on the continental shelf, whereas the Ancistroteuthis lichtensteini, Bathypolypous sponsalis, Brachioteuthis riisei, Chiroteuthis veranyi, Ctenopteryx sicula, Heteroteuthis dispar, Histioteuthis reversa, Neorossia caroli and Pyroteuthis margaritiferawere found only on the slope. The rest of the species extended in both continental shelf and slope. The spatial distribution of different species groups is discussed in relation to the hydrology and topography of the study area and the species ecology.

On August 10, 1976, Greece addressed a communication to the President of the Security Council requesting an urgent meeting of the Council on the ground that “following recent repeated flagrant violations by Turkey of the sovereign rights of Greece in the continental shelf in the Aegean, a dangerous situation has been created threatening international peace and security.” On the same day, by unilateral application, Greece instituted proceedings in the International Court of Justice against Turkey in “a dispute concerning the delimitation of the continental shelf appertaining to Greece and Turkey in the Aegean Sea, and concerning the respective legal rights of those States to explore and exploit the continental shelf of the Aegean.” Also on the same day Greece filed a request for interim measures of protection asking the Court to direct that both Greece and Turkey
