The claim that Turkey dominates the Eastern Mediterranean Sea was made by the leader of the Turkish Cypriot community Ersin Tatar, during the naval phase of the "search and rescue exercise" taking place in the occupied territories.
"My message is that in cooperation with the Republic of Turkey, we are showing the whole world what can be done in this region, at sea and in the blue homeland with our sovereignty and the latest technological capabilities we have," he said.
"Of course, we are doing everything we can to maintain peace in this region."
"Of course, we are doing everything we can to maintain peace in this region. In this region, in the Blue Homeland, we have all seen how valuable and important the work in our area of jurisdiction is when it comes to hydrocarbon exploration in the seas," Tatar added.
The Turkish Cypriot leader watched part of the illegal exercise from a Turkish Navy ship.
