NOURNEWS - Qatar's Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdul Rahman al-Thani announced at an online Security Council meeting that the Libyan capital, Tripoli, had been under attack by paramilitary forces for more than a year.
He added: "If the international community is serious about resolving the Libyan crisis, it should know that any agreement based on negotiation and understanding must include clear international mechanisms for holding countries accountable for not adhering to these agreements." The way out of the Libyan crisis is to support the rule of law.
Since the overthrow of Muammar Gaddafi in 2011, there has been a split in Libya. In 2015, following a political agreement, the UN-backed National Unity Government was formed in Libya, but the Haftar Forces (backed by the UAE and Saudi Arabia) based in the east of the country, attacked to Tripoli, the capital and location of the Wefaq government (backed by Turkey) in 2019, with the aim of capturing it, and clashes between the two sides have continued since then.
Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, France, Qatar, Italy, Russia and the United States, each in their own interests in recent years, entered the Libyan war in various forms, first indirectly and now directly.
