Summary/Abstract: The recent developments regarding the Eastern Mediterranean and the States in that region have created a stronger need then ever to establish the maritime boundaries between Turkey and its neighbors in the region. The means of establishing the maritime boundaries and the nature of the settlement can be accomplished through bilateral talks. Whatever the means the parties chose for settlement, it is always a strong possibility that the settlement will be depended on the relevant legal principles and rules. The present study will try to identify the principles relevant to the establishment of the maritime boundaries between Turkey and its neighbors in the Eastern Mediterranean as well as to examine the possible outcome. In conclusion, the present study argues that the maritime delimitation in that region should be done on the basis of certain methods other than the equidistance method as a result of the relevant principles applicable to the delimitation in the region.
