Egypt rejects Turkey maritime agreement
Egypt strongly rejected the Libyan House of Representatives' ratification of the memorandum of understanding signed between the Fayez al-Sarraj government and Turkey in 2019, which outlines maritime jurisdiction areas in the Mediterranean Sea. The Egyptian Foreign Ministry confirmed that the memorandum is legally invalid and has no legal effects for Egypt, as it conflicts with the principles of international law and justice that regulate the exclusive economic zone and continental shelf in accordance with the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea of 1982. Egypt warned that the memorandum infringes upon its sovereign maritime rights, while reserving its right to protect those rights and to counter any actions that violate Egypt’s declared maritime boundaries.
