- The presence or less of grey zones in the Aegean Sea.
- Sovereignty problems over many islands of the Aegean Sea.
- Airspace violations and unauthorized Naval exercises by both parties (in response to other parties violation going an endless loop) since the 80's, as well as other types of provocations. Both sides generally claim that there are no violations (preferring the euphemism "routine flights" or "exercises in no man's land") or that before classifying a violation as such or not, the aforementioned "Grey Zone".
