Turkey is challenging Greek sovereignty over 152 islands and islets in the Aegean.

Omissions

• The figure of 152 islands is presented in the claim as an established fact of Turkish policy, but sources indicate it originates from Turkish media reports and analyst statements; the actual draft 'Blue Homeland' law reportedly does not contain the number 152 and is not a document defining sovereignty areas (Yetkin Report).
• No primary/official source (Turkish government, Greek MFA, or an international body) explicitly and officially endorses the 152-island figure; the supporting evidence is journalistic and analytical (Greek City Times, Ekathimerini).
• The Blue Homeland bill was reportedly shelved ahead of a NATO summit, adding context that the MEP's 'imminent legislation' framing may be overstated.

• SecondaryKathimerini (ekathimerini.com)Some Turkish media outlets suggested the bill could allow Turkey to raise its flag on 152 islands whose sovereignty they describe as undefined.
