As a result of this article, the relations between Turkey and Libya are clearly revealed. In addition, Turkey's foreign policy towards Libya emphasizes the importance of both the sovereignty and maritime rights of Turkey, Libya and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. It reveals that Turkey's foreign policy towards Libya in the Eastern Mediterranean is very important both geopolitically and geostrategically.
