Turkey, Russia nearing deal on Libya ceasefire, political process
(Worthy News) – Turkey and Russia have moved closer to an agreement on a ceasefire and political process in Libya during their latest meetings in Ankara, Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu told an interview with broadcaster CNN Turk late on Wednesday.
Ankara and Moscow are the main power brokers in Libya’s war, backing opposing sides. Russia supports the eastern-based forces of Khalifa Haftar, while Turkey backs Libya’s internationally-recognized Government of National Accord (GNA). The GNA and the leader of a rival parliament to the east called for a ceasefire last month, but Haftar dismissed the move.
Earlier on Wednesday night, Libya’s internationally recognized Prime Minister Fayez al-Sarraj announced his intention to step down by the end of October in a speech delivered on state television. [ Source: Jerusalem Post (Read More…) ]
