Stressing the strong ties between Turkiye and Libya, the Turkish Foreign Minister announced in Tripoli on Monday the signing of Memorandums of Understanding on hydrocarbon and gas between the two countries. On the countries' November 2019 maritime jurisdiction agreement, Cavusoglu said the pact secures the interests of both Turkiye and Libya. "The agreements signed today and before are agreements between two sovereign States, Turkiye and Libya, with a win-win understanding," he said. This is highly important, not only for national unity, but also for political stability, and Turkey places great importance on this," he added. For lasting stability in Libya, Turkiye deems the holding of free, fair, nationwide elections as soon as possible, crucial in line with the aspirations of the Libyan people.
