The foreign ministers of France, Italy and Germany arrived Thursday in Tripoli to show their support to Libya's newly elected transitional authorities, who are expected to lead the war-stricken country through general elections at the end of 2021. March 25, 2021 The European foreign ministers also called on mercenaries and foreign fighters to leave the country immediately. “We are here to express our support of the political transition in Libya and we are willing to cooperate with the government of National Unity,” Italian Foreign Minister Luigi Di Maio told reporters at a joint news conference with his counterparts. Di Maio was referring to Libya’s interim government, which includes a three-member presidential council and a Cabinet that took power amid international pressure to implement a U.N.-brokered political roadmap. The three foreign ministers stressed that foreign fighters and mercenaries should immediately leave the country in order to ensure the full implementation a ceasefire agreement inked in October. “This (withdrawal) is indispensable so that Libya can regain its sovereignty and security,” said France’s Foreign Affairs Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian. “By fulfilling these conditions, Libya can finally turn the page after so many years of a crisis that has divided the country.” The oil-rich country in recent years has been split between rival east- and west-based administrations, each backed by armed groups and foreign governments. In April 2019, east-based commander Khalifa Hifter launched a military offensive to wrestle the capital, Tripoli, from a U.N.-supported government. Hifter's 14-month-long military campaign failed eventually after Turkey had thrown its full military backing behind his rivals forcing his troops to retreat eastwards. Earlier this month, the U.N. Security Council called for countries with troops and mercenaries, who were involved in Libya's most recent civil conflict, to withdraw them “without delay.” The U.N. has estimated there are 20,000 foreign fighters in Libya, including Syrians, Turks, Sudanese and Russians. Italy's Di Maio affirmed the commitment of the three European nations to continue enforcing the U.N. arms embargo on Libya through their naval mission in the Mediterranean sea, dubbed Irini. “We should increase our efforts to train the Libyan coast guard and navy so they could help with this mission," Di Maio. added. A recently released U.N. report accused several foreign governments of turning the North African country into a stage to play out rivalries, ignoring U.N. sanctions and the decade-long arms embargo. The experts identified Turkey and Qatar as the backers of forces loyal to the U.N.-supported administration in Tripoli, to the west, while the United Arab Emirates, Russia, and Egypt have supported Hifter. “We have talked about the tasks ahead and about how we can concretely support (Libya) where there is a wish for it,” said Germany's Foreign Minister Heiko Maas. EU top diplomats also stressed the need to reopen the country's Mediterranean coastal road linking the east and the west. For her part, Libya's Foreign Minister Najla Mangouch said that she had discussed with her European counterparts the reopening of their embassies and consular services on Libyan soil. On Tuesday, French President Emmanuel Macron announced that his country will reopen its embassy in Tripoli next week in a show of support to the newly-elected transitional government. Macron spoke after a meeting in Paris with Mohammad Younes Menfi and Musa al-Koni, president and vice-president of Libya’s Presidential Council. It remains unclear whether other EU countries will follow suit soon. “I am happy to be here with German and Italian colleagues,” said Le Drian. "We want to prove by our presence that the EU has a unified position on the Libyan portfolio. This unified position is important because Libya is our immediate neighbor and we cannot ignore the repercussions of the Libyan crisis on Europe." Le Drian was referring to the EU previous failure to form a unified bloc when Hifter began marching on the capital two years ago, with France taking the latter's side and Italy backing the government in the west. Separately, Menfi met with Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi in Cairo on Thursday as part of his diplomatic efforts to galvanize support for his government. “We are ready to provide our full support to Libya until it achieves the unity of its territories and stability away from any foreign intervention and (foreign) fighters and mercenaries,” el-Sissi told Menfi --------------------------- Russia have a long good Relationship with Africa in past during the Soviet Union,as Africans studied with Russian Scholarships and good cheap Russian Goods were sold directly to buyers by Russian manufacturing Companies to directly to Africans like Lada Motor Cars etc,which largely created good mutual understanding, cooperation and Relationships,which which Putin inherited and ruin it during Putin long stay in KGB and his later Governance which Putin could not continue. Although,West ruined and underdeveloped Africa,But Putin led leadership did nothing until this new propaganda. In 1960s,1970s,1980s & 1990s when Nigeria was attempting to build & acquire Steel Production and technology,US$ Billions were used & lost when Russia either uncompleted or abandoned Nigeria Steels' Projects,which indirectly in connivance with the British Queen led Imperialists,which remotely controlled Buhari led Fulani Extremists to cause Steel projects' failure,uncompleted,Sabotage & projects' wastage. in Nigeria,Zaire DRC,other Africa Countries  etc,which were handled by ex-Soviet Union either incomplete or abandonedprojects/programs by now Russia. Although the West did so many wrongs in Africa,but these African  with Russian Projects/Programs were uncompleted or abandoned,which marred our African Efforts to develop and to  produce as much expected Goods/Services. Putin during his Boss in KGB negated our efforts and Russia negated & abandoned during long time Putin Regime in Russia and his latest campaign is politics,using distressed Africa as political tool for Putin world politics,please leave Africa alone or send Russian Scholarships and some cheap Russian Goods directly to Africa, as in 1970s without Agent. ................................................... Russia Vladimir Putin, as a groomed voodoo political/economic crisis Expert and as a KGB trained Con Artist Expert/KGB insecurity crisis Expert.Huge Migrant Crisis,Trump induced Trade Tariff Economic Conflict/Crisis and Far Right/White Extremist Political Instability confronting West & US with its Allies nowadays,have testified Russia Vladimir Putin, as a groomed voodoo political/economic Crisis Expert and as a KGB trained Con Artist Expert/KGB insecurity Crisis Expert. Analysts were of opinion that Putin Russia KGB Elements/NGOs secretly organized, sponsored & tele-guided Stranded Mediterranean sea Migrants and Stranded US-Mexico border Migrants, as technical analysis or careful studies of some years back Migrants,could show that past migrants were resourceful, matured & well knowledgeable than present youthful migrants,as many present migrant do not have the required Resources or Maturity & traveling know-how,as to leave their various Countries,in order to be able to reach either Mediterranean sea or US-Mexico Border. Putin migrant problematic Designs were created to inflate the US or West with large Refugee Complex Problems and to create a migrant unsolvable situation where the US or West is portrayed in bad Media light as inhuman or not caring. Western Securities/Agents should be on the field, as to counter and checkmate this Putin Russia Migrant Crisis program as quickly as possible.  Putin led Russia Kremlin/KGB Hardliners accused US with its Western Allies for the collapse of former Soviet Union Republics,whereby  Putin with his Cohorts strategically nurtured & sponsored European Far Right Chauvinists/White Extremists and US White Extremist Conservatives,as to create Racial Divide Crisis, inflate Racial Inequalities, Economic Disharmony & to  segregate US various Races/Classes from US flourishing Economy. Trump led Extremist Republicans after saying that Obama 8 years were disastrous,but upon Trump Office assumption, they asserted that Jobs were being created and the US Economy was turned around and is now performing, while the smallest Economy takes 2 years,to be able to turn it around. -------------------- Soliciting for Maziliteralworks' Donation/any amount or Media laptop/window Computers' Donation, Phone Media Assistance for Mazi Literal Works' Dissemination/Publication.Upon your Response,more info of the US/Canadian Coordinator  will be sent.
