Greek seismologists have issued significant warnings for the Aegean Sea and the Balkans following the 6.2 magnitude earthquake in Istanbul.

Greek seismologist Akis Tselentis stated that the earthquake risk in Istanbul is very high, saying, "There is not a single scientist in the world who believes that a major earthquake will not occur in Istanbul." All scientists are expecting a major earthquake.

Kostas Papazachos from Aristotle University in Thessaloniki stated, "The region has a debt to a major earthquake," and expressed that the potential for the Istanbul earthquake to directly affect Greece is low.

Kostas Synolakis emphasized that they expect an earthquake greater than 8 on the Greek arc. This creates a concerning scenario for Greece.

Experts indicate that following the earthquake in Istanbul, Greece should remain alert. However, they stress that there is no need for immediate concern.

Scientists in Greece express that careful attention should be paid to the Aegean Sea and the Balkans after the earthquake in Istanbul. However, the timing of a major earthquake remains uncertain.
