Egypt passes through tense times after the Turkish parliament approved a bill that allows Turkey to send troops to Libya.
This makes it important for us to stand
united against the intransigence of Turkish ruler, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, as
well as this of the lobby groups allied to him, including the remnants of the
Muslim Brotherhood and the emirate of evil, officially known as Qatar.
The coming days carry thousands of
possibilities. Nonetheless, NATOs silence in the face of the pure hooliganism
of one of its member states, one that violates all international charters,
raises questions. Everybody knows that the deal on which Erdogan based the bill
he sent to parliament for approval to be able to send troops to Libya is illegitimate.
The deal contravenes the Skhirat Agreement,
which makes it necessary for international deals to be approved by all the
members of the Libyan Presidential Council, not its head only.
Erdogan knows well that his deal with
the head of the Presidential Council and the prime minister of the
Tripoli-based Government of National Accord, Fayez al-Sarraj, is illegal. The
deal is signed by someone who happened to be the head of the Presidential
Council, but not mandated to sign international deals alone.
The actions Erdogan makes under total
silence from NATO bring us back to square one. They revive foreign interference
in Libya, one aiming at distributing the wealth of this war-torn state to those
ready to steal it, including the Turkish ruler himself.
The defense of our national security
makes it necessary for us to stop foreign interference in Libya at all costs,
even by the war others want to impose on us.
Erdogan and NATO try to create a new
autumn in North Africa, one they can use in tightening the noose around Egypt,
especially from the western side. Ethiopia will then be allowed to tighten the
noose around Egypt from the south.
Egyptian decision-makers are fully
aware of Qatari moves in Africa, ones that exceed the limits of major
investments. These moves also include imposing specific agendas on African
states.
The fact is that we are facing a
historical challenge, one that makes it necessary for us all: the people, the
army, the parliament, and the government, to stand united behind President
Abdel Fattah al-Sisi.
We authorize him to take whatever
measures he sees fit to protect Egypt's national security.
God will surely stand by our side.
