No one is preventing Turkey from having a role and a say in the energy affairs of the Mediterranean Sea if it agrees with the Republic of Cyprus on the demarcation lines of the EEZ, President Nicos Anastasiades said today, noting that the EastMed European project is not a decision of the US government.
In statements to journalists after the ceremony of handing over the Larnaca marina and port to the investor, the President was asked whether US Deputy Secretary of State Victoria Nuland, during their meeting yesterday, conveyed a message from Ankara, where Mrs. Nuland was there before going to Cyprus, while he was asked to comment on her references in interviews implying an energy union with the occupied territories before a solution to the Cyprus problem is reached.
