This week’s newsletter from AthensLive is out:

*      An ever-growing list

*      Squaring accounts

*     The court ruled the victim was innocent

- are the main headlines to be found inside this highly informative weekly must-read from and about Greece. Greece is experiencing a political earthquake since a Documento bombshell report last week claimed there were 33 high-profile victims of the illegal Pegasus spyware, with another report later raising the number to 106. Greek oligarch Marinakis, closely affiliated with ND, appeared to be indirectly on the list. His aide and his newspapers have unleashed an unprecedented attack against the government since then. Finally, grave victims of Greek police lawlessness -whom even top government officials had slandered- finally found some justice in a court’s decision.

It cannot be recommended strongly enough to read and share this week’s updates on the events and developments in Greece here:

Libya's Tripoli government signed a preliminary deal on energy exploration on Monday, prompting Greece and Egypt to say they would oppose any activity in disputed areas of the eastern Mediterranean.

Libya's eastern-based parliament, which backs an alternative administration, also rejected the deal.

Speaking at a ceremony in Tripoli, Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu and Libyan Foreign Minister Najla Mangoush said the deal was one of several in a memorandum of understanding on economic issues aimed at benefiting both countries.

It was not immediately clear whether any concrete projects to emerge would include exploration in the "exclusive economic zone" which Turkey and a previous Tripoli government agreed in 2019, angering other eastern Mediterranean states.

That zone envisaged the two countries sharing a maritime border but was attacked by Greece and Cyprus and criticised by Egypt and Israel.

"It does not matter what they think," said Cavusoglu when asked if other countries might object to the new memorandum of understanding.

"Third countries do not have the right to interfere," he added.

Greece's foreign ministry said on Monday that Greece had sovereign rights in the area which it intended to defend "with all legal means, in full respect of the international law of the sea."

It cited a 2020 pact between Athens and Egypt, designating their own exclusive economic zone in the eastern Mediterranean, which Greek diplomats have said effectively nullified the 2019 accord between Turkey and Libya.

"Any mention or action enforcing the said 'memorandum' will be de facto illegitimate and depending on its weight, there will be a reaction at a bilateral level and in the European Union and NATO," the Greek foreign ministry said in a statement.

An Egyptian foreign ministry's statement said on Monday that Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry received a phone call from his Greek counterpart, Nikos Dendias, where they discussed the developments in Libya.

They both stressed that "the outgoing 'government of unity' in Tripoli does not have the authority to conclude any international agreements or memoranda of understanding,"the Egyptian foreign ministry's statement added.

Greek foreign minister Nikos Dendias expressed his discontent about the “rapprochement” between neighbouring Turkey and Albania after the two countries signed a deal for three Bayraktar drones.[...]

“Their aim is not only of cooperation, but to create zones of influence, which are not even consistent with the European acquis, neither with the European perspective nor with European values”, Dendias said.

Earlier this week, Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama praised Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan for his help in signing a deal with a Turkish company to buy three Bayraktar drones, which are widely used in the war in Ukraine.

“We signed an export contract with Albania, a country where we have walked for centuries and share strong historical, cultural and humanitarian ties”, the CEO of the Turkish drones company said in a statement.[...] Meanwhile, Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis is also expected to visit Albania on Thursday to visit the Himare region where a Greek minority lives.[...] A small diplomatic spat errupted at the same time when Rama told EURACTIV in an interview that Greece had “cheated” during its EU accession. This sparked strong reactions in Athens and an apology of sorts from Rama.
