Libya Gas & Oil Minister called for negotiations with Greece Cyprus & Egypt to define maritime borders or resort to International Court of Justice, adding that some countries (meaning Turkey) have resorted to unilateral solutions instead of dialogue & consensus.
Greek thesis is clear: first national elections in Libya, election of a government, negotiations based on the Law of the Sea(UNCLOS). Also there are no maritime borders between Libya and Turkey.

Bro, you know better than to post meaningless nonsense.

One minister's words mean nothing when half the government relies heavily on Turkey.

Downgrading the statements of the minister responsible for energy does not show the best in your geopolitical understanding, which statements are a continuation of the decision of the supreme administrative court of Tripoli which ruled in favor of suspending the implementation of the Turkey-GNU agreement on the hydrocarbon explorations, citing a Libyan resolution that the GNU government cannot enter into agreements that bind the country abroad.

Is that why Turkey's continues to do so with no Libyan objection?

Libya is barely a country and the GNU is heavily reliant on Turkey for support.

One minister's statement makes no difference when reality shows the opposite of it. The courts barely have authority as well, thus aren't even worth mentioning.

That is geopolitics. Not meaningless words that have no ground impact. It would only matter if there was actual on the ground impact.

After American chief of intelligence Turkey chief of intelligence Hakan Fidan will go to Libya tommorow. Americans are siding with Tripoli because of the Russian involvement. They are not capable to send the Russian back to home, they will have to fight each others 😄.
