Why Ghana Is Fighting Togo Over Ocean Borders

Ghana has officially taken Togo to international arbitration over a disputed maritime boundary in the Atlantic Ocean. After nearly eight years of failed negotiations, Ghana says it wants a final legal decision on where its sea borders end and where Togo’s begin.

That means lost revenue, lost jobs, and delayed development for Ghana.
