In the announcement of the hydrocarbon tender made by Egypt, it was stated that the continental shelf boundaries declared by Turkey to the UN were taken into consideration.
While the statement of Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu stating that there are contacts at intelligence level between Turkey and Egypt preserves its place in minds, with the latest development, the question "Will the relations between Turkey and Egypt return to normal?" came up to the minds.
While Egypt's step in the energy sharing struggle in the Eastern Mediterranean resonated, a statement came from Turkey on the subject.
Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu, who held a joint press conference with his Georgian counterpart Davit Zalkaliani, evaluated Egypt's step.
Noting that they welcomed Egypt's announcement that it will conduct a search with respect to our borders in the Eastern Mediterranean, Çavuşoğlu said that a maritime jurisdiction agreement could be signed with Egypt.
Çavuşoğlu, regarding the issue, "Respecting our continental shelf by Egypt is a positive step. According to the course of our relations, we can also sign an agreement with Egypt by negotiating maritime jurisdictions," he said.
What will come from the Egyptian front for Minister Çavuşoğlu's remarkable words within the scope of Turkey-Egypt relations remains a matter of concern.
