Turkish foreign minister, Haken Fiden, for the Libyan approval of the Marine Border Memorial 2019: Some respond that they feel they must respond. Others have strategic problems about this. But both legally and politically, this is a completely legitimate agreement. There is no need to argue about it. In fact, according to our lawyers, the agreement signed in 2019 was technically valid. What the parliament did was an act of acceptance, not a conversion. Our goal, like anywhere else, is to bring stability, peace and happiness to the Mediterranean. Our diplomacy has no other goal.
