Libya Ready to Address Egypt Maritime Concerns
Libya prime minister tells Egypt intelligence chief his government is ready to address concerns over Mediterranean maritime boundaries and economic waters.
Libya's administration offered to resolve maritime boundary disputes with Egypt following Cairo's rejection of a contested energy exploration accord. The diplomatic outreach follows Cairo's rejection of a 2019 Mediterranean agreement linked to Turkey that escalated regional resource tensions. The dispute threatens energy exploration rights across the eastern Mediterranean basin, drawing pushback from neighboring states.
