Turkey must respect integrity on the ground, seas and airspace of any other country and resolve any disputes in a peaceful manner, Commission spokesman Peter Stano said.
According to ERT, responding to a question on the recent threats and inflammatory statements by Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan against Greece, Commission spokesman Peter Stano said:
"In terms of relations between the EU and EU Member States and Turkey, the EU has been and is clear that we expect Turkey to behave in a constructive manner, to refrain from escalatory steps, rhetoric or actions and to commit to building good neighbourly relations, not the other way around."
Stano also underlined that "Turkey should also respect the sovereignty of all EU member states in their territorial waters and airspace. We have repeatedly stated that any open issue should be addressed in a peaceful manner, through dialogue, good faith, full respect for international law and in accordance with the principle of good neighbourly relations."
