Yes. Then Greece and Egypt to follow. Then Greece, Cyprus, Egypt. Then Cyprus and Lebanon...
You see where this is going...

The Greek and Egyptian Foreign Ministers met recently in Cairo where they discussed agreement in their respective Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZ), an issue that was hampered over the years due to the alliance of Turkey and Egypt that was abruptly ended after the unsuccessful support of Turkey to the late Egyptian Premier Morsi. This will result in a new round of negotiations in which Egypt agreed to let Cyprus be included, which may end likely in the Greek EEZ reaching as far as the joint borders of those of Cyprus-Egypt.
Greece is already hinting that the next step would be to hand out licenses for gas explorations in order to mimic other East Mediterranean countries. Should there be any meaningful plans to export gas from the Eastern Mediterranean to the EU, close collaboration of all neighboring states is needed in order to join reserves and share costs associated either with the establishment of a pipeline route or via LNG installations.
