Libyan official accuses Turkey of transferring foreign terrorists to Libya
|
[AlMasdar] A Libyan official told the Arabic language version of Russia’s Sputnik News Agency on Saturday that The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
 ...just another cheapjack Moslem dictatorship, brought to you by the Moslem Brüderbund...
is transferring foreign holy warriors to Libya to fight the Benghazi-based Libyan National Army (LNA).
Speaking to Sputnik from Tobruk, Libyan parliamentarian ’Ali al-Sa’eedi al-Qaidi said that Turkey has been sending holy warriors to Libya for quite some time now, highlighting the fact that these snuffies only attack the Libyan National Army.
"The transfer of holy warriors is not new. This is a long story. Many holy warriors come from Turkey through Tripoli
...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn...
and Misrata to fight the Libyan National Army in Tripoli and obstruct its advance into the center of the Libyan capital of Tripoli," al-Qaidi told Sputnik.
The Libyan member of the House of Representatives said that "these groups are now in the fighting the Libyan National Army under the protection of the civil state," stressing that "on Saturday, a Tunisian terrorist was arrested at the Wadi al-Rabea, south of the capital Tripoli."
In regards to Russia, l-Qaidi considered that "the Russian position on the crisis is clear and confirms the fight against terrorism in Libya."
In response to a question by Sputnik on the possibility of a ceasefire in Tripoli and the return to peace talks among the Libyan parties, al-Qaidi said, "the issue is sitting at the negotiating table; this is political and the army is fully aware there is no dialogue amid the presence of armed terrorist groups."
Tensions between Turkey and Libya has recently increased after the Libyan National Army forces led by Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar
...Self-proclaimed Field Marshal, served in the Libyan army under Muammar Qadaffy, and took part in the coup that brought Qadaffy to power in 1969. He became a prisoner of war in Chad in 1987. While held prisoner, he and his fellow officers formed a group hoping to overthrow Qadaffy, so it's kind of hard to describe him as a Qadaffy holdover. He was released around 1990 in a deal with the United States government and spent nearly two decades in the United States, gaining US citizenship. In 1993, while living in the United States, he was convicted in absentia of crimes against the Jamahiriya and sentenced to death. Haftar held a senior position in the anti-Qadaffy forces in the 2011 Libyan Civil War. In 2014 he was commander of the Libyan Army when the General National Congress (GNC) refused to give up power in accordance with its term of office. Haftar launched a campaign against the GNC and its Islamic fundamentalist allies. His campaign allowed elections to take place to replace the GNC, but then developed into a civil war. Guess you can't win them all...
threatened to target Ottoman Turkish ships and planes in Libya.
