The Western-backed Libyan government in Tobruk and the Tripoli-based government are moving closer to some sort of power-sharing agreement, according to UN officials familiar with the ongoing talks, and have reached a basic “consensus” on the main points of how it will work.
Details aren’t being released on this framework agreement, but both sides are to submit a list of names for possible candidates in key positions in the unity government, including a list of prime ministers who would be agreeable to them.
The split between the two governments is both ideological and territorial, and stems in part from Tobruk PM Abdullah al-Thinni, who back when they were the Tripoli government refused an appointment as PM, then refused to hand over the position to the parliament’s next choice, a Misratan.
The power dispute ultimately set the stage for the Misrata militia to back its own government, which took Tripoli,.and when the remnants of the old Thinni government fled to Tobruk, they reappointed Thinni as premier. Khalifa al-Ghawi is the current PM in Tripoli, though the position is officially only “acting” premier.
“if only someone would write an article or make a documentary of what life in Libya was like before Europe and US destroyed it, then, maybe the people of world would say enough is enough”; and as my lady friend from Libya said this the tears were falling on her photo album.
What fo you day to this elderly lady,87, that theanti war actually encouraged the war, that the “Swords Into Plowshares UN has melted them back into depleted uranium warheads and encouraged the killing by aircraft of US and Euro nations .
That the destruction will now be repaired through World Bank Loans to be repaif by sale of Libyan nations assets of oil while its educational institutions that rivaled the best of europes now are closing doors for lack of funding S the wealthy and educated upper class flee with their assets to those US and Euro lands.
That she and her husbands peers cannot complain they now are no longer Libyans but wealthy refugees who will have kids going back to Libya but only to work for foreign governments and corporates.
None of the above can you say and you lie saying someday Libya will be better, knowing full well depleted uranium is spreading throughout he land and oil deaths last just as long, forever.
You do not say that you do not give a flyn f about her or Libya, and your only interest in her is if she can she afford to buy what you are selling or pay you what she owes.
