flag Turkey calls Greece’s new gas deal with Chevron illegal, citing violations of international law and a 2019 Libya agreement.

flag Turkey has condemned Greece’s new natural gas exploration deal with a Chevron-led consortium off Crete, calling it unlawful and a violation of international law and a 2019 maritime agreement with Libya. flag Ankara claims the project undermines Libya’s UN-declared maritime claims and breaches regional agreements, though it does not directly affect Turkey’s continental shelf. flag Greece maintains its actions comply with international law and are part of efforts to secure energy supplies amid Europe’s push to reduce Russian dependence. flag The deal doubles Greece’s offshore exploration area, marking the second major U.S. energy agreement in the region this year. flag Despite a 2023 diplomatic thaw, longstanding tensions over maritime boundaries and energy rights persist between the NATO allies.
