The Struggle for Power in the Mediterranean Sea

New wars over gas, influence and migration?

by Thomas Seibert

Description

The Eastern Mediterranean Sea is a tinderbox where military tensions are rising and the threat of a war is immanent. The situation is complex, with numerous states involved. Turkey and Greece are increasing their military presence and with them two NATO allies are about to enter into a military dispute over gas and power. Russia also takes an aggressive stance and the European Union is trying to seize control of the migration routes.
Thomas Seibert’s new book provides an overview of the conflicts, the state actors and their interests.
