Libyan Member of Parliament, Misbah Douma, welcomed the statement of the 5+5 Joint Military Commission (JMC), regarding the necessity of removing mercenaries and all foreign forces from Libya and freezing agreements signed with foreign countries until holding the presidential elections next December.
Douma said in a tweet to him that the statement of the JMC represents every “honorable Libyan who sees the foreign presence as a desecration of the soil of this country and an insult to the people.”
He added, “I say yes to the exit of any foreigner carrying arms in Libya.”
In its statement after a meeting in Sirte on the 13th and 14th August, the JMC called for the freezing of all military and security Memoranda of Agreements (MoUs) signed with Turkey and Russia, “so that the Commission can begin the procedures for implementing the exit of all mercenaries, fighters, and foreign forces from the country.”
