UPDATE 2-Greece says Libya-Turkish deal invalid, in bad faithGreece has lodged objections to the United Nations over an accord between Libya and Turkey mapping out maritime boundaries as a violation of international law, the Greek government said on Tuesday. Greece expelled the Libyan ambassador in response to the deal last week, infuriated at a pact which skirts the Greek island of Crete and infringes, in Athens’s view, its continental shelf. “This agreement was compiled in bad faith,” government spokesman Stelios Petsas said.
