Egypt opposes Libya's maritime area approval
Egypt firmly rejected the Libyan House of Representatives' ratification of the memorandum of understanding signed between Libya and Turkey in 2019 regarding maritime jurisdiction areas in the Mediterranean Sea. The Egyptian Foreign Ministry confirmed that the memorandum is legally invalid and carries no legal effect for Egypt. The statement emphasized that the memorandum contradicts the principles of international maritime law and the United Nations Convention of 1982, and clearly undermines Egypt's sovereign rights in its economic zone and continental shelf. Egypt reiterated its rejection of the memorandum and affirmed its commitment to safeguarding its rights in accordance with international law, stating that it will take the necessary measures to defend its maritime borders.
