This study examines the concept of the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), which causes our country and the Greek Cypriot Administration of Southern Cyprus (GCASC) to face diplomatically in the Eastern Mediterranean region, with the EastMed project, which excludes our country, within the framework of various alliances created by the policies of our country and the GCASC towards the energy reserves in the current region and the disagreements brought about by the concept of EEZ, thus, it has been shaped around the attitudes of the Middle Eastern states of the region, which are drawing an unstable picture due to their political and internal turmoil, and the question of which direction the energy chess in the region can evolve in this context.
In the first chapter of the study, the definition of the concept of EEZ in terms of ensuring the integrity of the subject and then the examination of the concept within the scope of the region, which is the subject of the study, has progressed. In the second chapter, the policies regarding the energy reserves of our country and the GCASC in the current region and the EastMed project are written, and in the third chapter, especially after the Arab Spring, the political crises in the states that we can call energy producers in the region, the situation and attitudes of the states in the region, which seriously affect the hydrocarbon production in the region and cause the restructuring of the energy-based power balances between the states, are discussed.
