Turkey, Italy and Libya leaders discuss Mediterranean migration route, cooperation
ANKARA, Aug 1 (Reuters) - The migration route from Libya across the Mediterranean, used by thousands seeking a way to get to Europe, was a top issue at a meeting on Friday between the leaders of Turkey, Italy and Libya in Istanbul, Turkey's presidency said. President Tayyip Erdogan met Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and Libyan Prime Minister Abdulhamid al-Dbeibah to discuss migration and other potential cooperation areas. "Erdogan pointed to the importance of the cooperation between the three countries against the tests that the Mediterranean basin is facing, including irregular migration flows," the presidency said in a statement. He added that "long-term and sustainable solutions" were needed to stop such migration flows, and that a multilateral coordination was needed to achieve this, it said. Major energy exporter Libya, long split between rival eastern and western factions, is one of the main jumping off points for migrants crossing the Mediterranean from North Africa. Rival regional powers - Russia, Turkey, Egypt and the United Arab Emirates - have also been drawn into its political divisions. NATO member Turkey has militarily and politically supported Libya's Tripoli-based internationally-recognised government. In 2020, it sent military personnel there to train and support its government and later agreed a maritime demarcation accord, which has been disputed by Egypt and Greece. In 2022, Ankara and Tripoli also signed a preliminary accord on energy exploration, which Egypt and Greece also oppose. NATO allies Turkey and Italy meanwhile have strong ties, and have pledged to boost cooperation in the defence industry, while also increasing their reciprocal trade. Italy's Leonardo ( opens new tab and Turkey's Baykar announced in March that they were setting up a joint venture to produce unmanned aerial vehicles, while Ankara has been inching closer to securing a procurement of 40 Eurofighter Typhoon fighter jets from a consortium that includes Italy. Erdogan's office also said the three leaders agreed to meet to evaluate any decisions taken by their cooperation committees later.

Disgusting moment passenger picks dirt from underneath his partner's TOENAILS on flight from Tenerife
Some of the generally accepted rules of plane etiquette include not taking off your shoes and not invading other passengers space. But one horrified easyJet passenger caught a couple breaking both rules after she saw a man 'picking dirt from under his partner's toenails' during a flight. Erin Butcher was flying home from a seven-day family holiday in Tenerife but was shocked to notice a woman's bare feet propped up on a tray table. The 27-year-old was then left 'disgusted' after she noticed a man appearing to pick at her French pedicure toenails before 'flicking bits of dirt' to the floor and over the seats. Ms Butcher claims the couple did this for 20 minutes, while other passengers laughed nervously in confusion. The fashion merchandiser shared footage of the stomach-churning moment with the caption 'Nothing beats an easyJet flight. Hope no one ate off this tray table on the next flight'. The clip was shared on TikTok on Thursday and has since gone viral, racking up more than 336,200 views. Sickened, Ms Butcher said the sight was 'unhygienic' and made for a 'depressing' end to her holiday in August 2024. Ms Butcher, from Southwark, south east London, said: 'I felt so disgusted and I couldn't believe it. 'The partner was sprawled across the seats with her feet on the tray table, which was shocking enough. 'Her partner then started picking at her toenails and flicking little bits [of dirt] everywhere. It was disgusting. 'I was absolutely horrified. I was with my family and none of us could actually believe what was happening. 'Even to do that in the privacy of your own home is questionable but to put them on a tray table where people are eating off all day. 'I was relieved I wasn't sitting next to them. I had the perfect view from my aisle seat which is horrifying. I couldn't really take my eyes off even though I wanted to. 'Her feet were on that table the majority of the four-and-a-half-hour flight. She was really making herself at home. It's so unhygienic. 'Other passengers around us had noticed as well. Everyone was laughing and it was quite unbelievable. 'As if things aren't depressing enough when your week in the sun has just ended and you're faced with toe picking the whole way home.' Many users took to the comments to express their disgust. One user wrote: 'Totally gross,; while another commented: 'That's disgusting anywhere.' A third user wrote: 'Save it for later' and a fourth user wrote: 'Why on earth?' EasyJet has been approached for a comment.
