Libya’s eastern-based parliament has approved a maritime border agreement with Turkey, marking a significant diplomatic realignment that could reshape the country’s fractured alliances. The move comes amid ongoing tensions over territorial control and foreign involvement in Libya’s conflict, with analysts warning it may further complicate efforts toward political reconciliation. The pact grants Turkey exclusive rights to Libya’s offshore energy resources in a contested zone, deepening Ankara’s influence in a region where rival factions have long sought international backing. The decision underscores the fluid nature of Libya’s power struggles, where shifting foreign partnerships often dictate the balance of power on the ground.
