Tensions rise in the Eastern Mediterranean due to a maritime delimitation agreement between Turkey and Libya. Greece warns of potential EU sanctions if the situation escalates and plans to address the issue at the upcoming EU summit. The 2019 agreement, contested by Greece, claims a corridor in the Mediterranean, impacting energy exploration and rights over maritime zones. Greek officials emphasize the need for a stronger EU stance against the agreement, which they argue violates their sovereign rights. Turkey defends the agreement, accusing the EU of supporting Greece's claims. The dispute also affects broader relations between Turkey and the EU, particularly regarding energy projects and regional security.
