Abdel-Rahim Ali, member of the House of Deputies and head of the Center for
Middle East Studies in Paris, stressed that Libya needs during this phase the
support of the international community and the Arab League to liberate them
from terrorism. Ali praised in a statement issued today the efforts of Marshal
Khalifa Hafter and the national Libyan army after the great success achieved in
the response to the militias of the Muslim Brotherhood and Al Qaeda and
supported by Qatar and Turkey, which led to the escape of senior officials from
the airport of the International Meitaka Airport yesterday.
“The international community as a whole and all the Libyan institutions and the
brotherly Libyan people are called upon to support the Libyan National Army,
which has achieved great success on the ground before liberating the entire
Libyan east from the grip of the terrorist groups by mercenaries supported by
several countries,” Ali said.
Ali said that the main aim of the Tawafan el-Karama operation is to achieve political
stability and try to improve the terms of negotiations with the reconciliation
government which is absent from the need to confront groups of violence and
extremism allied to the military operation in the Nub al-Libi.
It aims to ensure the security of Arab and European capitals, especially Egypt,
Italy, Paris and others, especially since Tripoli has become the starting point
of terrorist groups against neighboring countries.
MP Abdel Rahim stressed that if security is not achieved in Libya, it will not
be felt by the neighboring countries. Therefore, the international community
and the world are required to take urgent action to provide all kinds of
support to the Libyan national army to control the whole Libyan territory and
immediately lift the ban on importing or supplying arms to it.
He pointed out that everyone should be aware that the military operation that
targeted Tripoli is ultimately targeting the death ships coming from Turkey
through Greece and other countries in the regional environment supporting the
terrorist groups and entities on the Libyan territories with the aim of
dividing Libya and destabilizing the region.
