WorldWhat is the Türkiye-Libya maritime deal, and why are the EU and Egypt opposed?

Eastern Libya’s parliament unanimously approved the 2019 Türkiye-Libya agreement delimiting maritime boundaries in the Mediterranean, reversing its 2020 rejection. Egypt and the EU call the deal null and void; Israel also condemned the move, while Greece says it violates international law and briefed the UN Security Council. Türkiye’s foreign minister called the agreement entirely legitimate.
