Greece Raises Turkey-Libya Maritime Deal at UN Security Council

Europe 1 source 1 country 🔦 Under-reported 12m ago

Greece has formally raised Libya's ratification of the 2019 Turkey-Libya maritime memorandum at the United Nations Security Council. Athens warned that the agreement poses risks to regional security and stability in the Eastern Mediterranean.

The development coincides with objections from the European Union, Egypt, and Israel regarding the pact. Concurrently, European Commissioner for the Mediterranean Dubravka Šuica strongly condemned the Libyan House of Representatives' ratification of the deal, declaring it invalid for violating the sovereign rights of third countries and contravening the Law of the Sea.

In response to the international pushback, Ankara has accused its critics of spreading opposition to the agreement.
