Shock Move from Greece to Libya! Developments in the Aegean Sea

Greece has taken a significant step by announcing the declaration of marine parks in the Aegean Sea. This development brings back the echoes of the maritime jurisdiction agreement between Libya and Turkey.
Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis stated at the UN Ocean Conference that marine parks will be declared in the Ionian and Aegean Seas by the end of this month. This situation could amplify the effects of the maritime jurisdiction agreement between Turkey and Libya.
In Libya, the administration under Khalifa Haftar is reviewing the maritime jurisdiction agreement with Turkey and Libya. This poses a significant threat to Greece.
Greece fears losing an important argument if Haftar's administration approves this agreement. Therefore, they are closely monitoring the developments.
Additionally, it has been reported that Greece will open an international tender for hydrocarbon exploration in the southern Peloponnese and southern Crete. This could further complicate energy exploration efforts in the region.
