Turkey’s foreign affairs ministry on Tuesday warned energy companies that expressed interest during the third hydrocarbons licencing round in Cyprus’ Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) for block 6 that any exploratory activity is unauthorised as part of the block lies within the Turkish continental shelf.
