Law No 2289/1995, as amended by Law No. 4001/2011: [2] ("the continental shelf and the exclusive economic zone (once declared), to a distance of 200 nautical miles from the baselines from which the breadth of the territorial sea is measured […] the outer limit of continental shelf and of the exclusive economic zone (once declared) is the median line, every point of which is equidistant from the nearest points on the baselines (both continental and insular) from which the breadth of the territorial sea is measured"

2012/2013 oil concessions dispute, near Kastellorizo; Greek statement: [3] ("all Greek islands, including the islands of Rhodes and the insular group of Castellorizo, enjoy, beyond their territorial waters, maritime zones as any other land territory" [...] "ab initio and ipso facto sovereign rights"; pointing to "Law No 2289/1995, as amended by Law No. 4001/2011"
Turkish response, 2013: equity versus strict application of median lines, "semi-enclosed seas where special circumstances prevail"
2016, Turkish note [4]: "islands do not necessarily generate full maritime jurisdiction zones […] when they are competing against continental land areas", points to precedents (UK vs. France over Channel Islands, Tunisia vs Italy, Romania vs Ukraine over Serpent Island, Bangladesh vs Myanmar, Nicaragua vs Colombia)

Yiallourides, Constantinos (2019). Maritime disputes and international law: Disputed waters and seabed resources in Asia and Europe. London: Routledge. "In some situations involving small islands that are remote from the coast of the State to which they belong and midway or even closer to the coast of another State, it is possible that they may [be] 'substantially discounted' for delimitation purposes if their use is perceived to have an inequitable distorting effect on the final boundary line". Several precedents from ICJ, ITLOS and others: Libya/Malta (discounting Filfla); Tunisia/Libya (discounting Djerba); Guinea/Guinea-Bissau arbitration (discounting Alcatraz); Qatar/Bahrain (discounting Qit'at al Jaradah and Fasht al Jarim); Romania/Ukraine (discounting Serpent Island)
