Greece Calls for Departure of All Foreign Mercenaries from Libya

On Monday, the Greek government’s spokeswoman, Aristotelia Belloni said that the reopening of the Greek Embassy in Tripoli, and its Consulate in Benghazi will contribute to strengthening bilateral cooperation between the two countries. She emphasised Athen’s support for Libya’s Government of National Unity (GNU) in leading the country to the December elections.

She called for the complete departure of all foreign forces and mercenaries from Libya, while urging the GNU to scrap a maritime boundary agreement with Turkey, which Athens says violates international law.

Speaking during a press conference ahead of Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis’ visit to Libya on Tuesday, Peloni said that relations between the two countries should be based “on the principles of international law and good faith.”

“It is important for Libya, in this new era, to rid itself of obstacles that are holding it back, such as the presence of foreign forces and mercenaries on its territory,” Peloni said. “But also of accords which are groundless and violate international law,” she added.

The GNU is expected to lead the country until general elections set for the 24 December 2021.
