Togo Reaffirms Commitment to 'Justice and Equity' After Ghana Refers Maritime Dispute to Arbitration
Togo responds to Ghana's decision to escalate their maritime border dispute through international arbitration, underscoring ongoing tensions between the two neighboring countries.
The Togolese government has formally replied to Ghana’s decision to refer their long-standing maritime border dispute to international arbitration. The dispute, which has stalled after nearly eight years of bilateral talks, centers on overlapping maritime claims in the Gulf of Guinea. With Ghana opting for arbitration, Togo reaffirms its commitment to a resolution based on justice and equity, but the move heightens geopolitical sensitivity in the region amid competing interests over offshore resources and strategic sea lanes.
