Libya’s parliament has approved the maritime jurisdiction agreement with Turkey, according to confirmations from two Libyan members of parliament to Reuters. This approval reverses a previous rejection of the same deal by the legislative body. The agreement concerns the delimitation of maritime zones between Libya and Turkey, a point of contention in the Eastern Mediterranean. Details regarding the specifics of the approval process and the vote count have not been immediately released. This development is expected to further complicate regional geopolitical dynamics. The agreement has faced criticism from several countries who view it as infringing on their own maritime rights. Further reactions from international actors are anticipated in the coming days.
