Strategic Actions of Athens and Nicosia Regarding the Situation in Syria
December 29, 2024
Athens and Nicosia are striving to prevent Turkey from reaching an agreement with Syria regarding the delimitation of maritime borders. Although Damascus does not see such an agreement as an immediate priority, the governments are concerned due to past Turkish activities. Turkey is seeking to establish its influence in Syria by proposing cooperation for training the Syrian army and strengthening energy infrastructure. The issue of the Kurds and energy resources in the region is also significant.
