Disinformation. The Lausanne Treaty did not define the extent of the territorial waters in the Aegean but settled the ownership status of the Aegean islands. Under the UN's Law of the Sea, Greece is legally entitled to extend its territorial sea up to 12 nm. https://www.un.org/depts/los/convention_agreements/texts/unclos/part2.htm https://www.noaa.gov/maritime-zones-and-boundaries https://treaties.un.org/doc/publication/unts/lon/volume%2028/v28.pdf
