Libya's Eastern Parliament (House of Representatives) has ratified the 2019 maritime delimitation agreement with Türkiye, directly challenging the maritime claims of Greece, Egypt, and Cyprus in the Eastern Mediterranean. This action, while not binding on the Tripoli-based Government of National Accord, has prompted strong condemnation from the EU, Greece, and Egypt, signaling a significant escalation in regional diplomatic and potential naval friction. The full legal and practical implications of this ratification remain uncertain given Libya's political division.
