The meeting between Turkish and Greek FMs to talk about possible negotiations has been scheduled for after October 5. Also, before the Summit, the Danish and Dutch PMs and the Austrian Chancellor will go to Greece to discuss immigration policies and Turkish Provocations

According to the article: "The three countries have an understanding with Greece on some points of the European Commission's proposals on Immigration and Asylum [...] and the subject of the talks will also include the Turkish provocations in the Eastern Mediterranean"

It is not expected that the EU will agree on imposing sanctions on Turkey despite the fact that several countries and MEPs have been calling for sanctions and some even for the end of Turkey accession negotiations to enter the EU. The fact that the meeting will take place before the summit is important because it might lead to some sort of agreement regarding immigration and the sanctions that could be imposed in Belarus and Turkey since Greece has stated before that it would not admit the EU to take one stance against Belarus and another against Turkey.

Germany and Merkel specially are hellbent on brushing sanctions aside and will most likely use the fact that a date for possible negotiations has been set to argue that such sanctions are not necessary even though Turkey has renewed a NAVTEX for drilling operations and seismic research off the coast of Cyprus recently.

Turkish propaganda promoting their Blue Homeland doctrine that takes away half of the Aegean from Greece and doesnt recognizes Greek islands EEZ compares Greece and Western countries as Templars and Turks as Ottomans
>https://archive.is/bvQrk

The Turkish "Blue Homeland" doctrine stems from their idea that no island is entitled to have an Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) in which nobody else is allowed to explore with fishing or drilling for example

The Turkish Government does not officially recognizes the UNCLOS (United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea) which recognizes the rights of islands to have EEZ's, although they have not signed it, Turkey applies UNCLOS parameters to delimitate their maritime space in the black sea and does not recognizes it in the Aegean and East Med for the fact that it would in fact Grant both Greece and Cyprus a large EEZ
