CAIRO — Libya's Government of National Unity (GNU) refused an Egyptian presidency decree unilaterally demarcating Egypt's western maritime borders, the Libyan foreign ministry said in a statement on its Facebook account on Friday.
Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi issued a presidential decree on Sunday demarcating the country's western maritime borders with neighboring Libya.
The Egyptian unilateral move is a violation of Libyan rights, the statement said, urging the Cairo government to hold talks.
"Egyptian-Libyan maritime borders' demarcation should be finalized through negotiations that respect the principle of equality," the statement said.
