Egypt, Tunisia, Algeria reaching consensus on Libya
Libya's neighboring countries Egypt, Algeria and Tunisia, have demonstrated great awareness of the country's need for support.
They agreed to find a political exit
for the current crisis in it, complete its political roadmap and support
stability in it.
This comes amid initiatives by
Libyan candidates to help the North African state get out of its current
problems.
Libyan candidates are also pushing
for the completion of the electoral process, and activating the provisions of
the roadmap to ensure the peaceful transfer of power.
Meanwhile, some Libyan members of parliament
issued a statement, in which they asked the National Unity Government to
initiate fundamental amendments.
Agreement
Tunisian Foreign Minister, Othman al-Jarandi,
and his Algerian counterpart, Ramtane Lamamra, discussed ways to support the
political process in Libya and encourage Libyans to move towards a consensus
that ensures the success of their path.
On January 17, Egyptian President
Abdel Fattah al-Sisi received Foreign Minister Lamamra in Cairo and stressed
the importance of consensus to achieve security and stability, preserve the
unity and sovereignty of Libya, and unify its national institutions, especially
the military and security ones.
The Egyptian leader called for
strengthening efforts to end the presence of foreign forces and mercenaries in
Libyan territories.
Minister Lamamra, for his part, delivered
a handwritten message from his country's President, Abdelmadjid Tebboune, to
President Sisi.
In his message, the Algerian leader
reportedly expresses pride in Algeria's close and distinguished relations with Egypt
at the official and popular levels.
He also expresses interest in
strengthening bilateral cooperation in all fields and increasing coordination
and consultations with President Sisi during the coming period.
President Tebboune visited Tunisia
in mid-December 2021 and confirmed his agreement with Tunisian President, Kais
Saied on the need for finding a solution to the Libyan crisis.
