- Turkey and Libya's internationally recognised government signed accords on maritime boundaries.
- Ankara says it may send troops to Libya, which has been divided into rival political factions since 2014.
Last month, Turkey and Libya's internationally recognised government signed accords on maritime boundaries, which enraged Greece.
Ankara says it may send troops to Libya, which has been divided into rival political factions since 2014, if the Tripoli-based government requests it.
"We will speed up the process between Turkey and Libya. We told them that we are always ready to help if they need it. From military and security cooperation, to steps taken regarding our maritime rights: we are ready," Erdogan told reporters in Geneva after a forum on migration.
