Libyan MP Voices Concerns over Turkey’s Role in Libya

On Friday, Libyan MP, Ali Al-Tekbali raised concerns about Turkey’s “sustained involvement in Western Libya,” even amid evolving diplomatic relations highlighted by the recent visit of House Speaker, Ageela Saleh to Ankara.

The MP expressed a cautious outlook regarding any substantial change in Turkey’s approach, following this visit. He emphasized the ongoing disparity in positions, suggesting that Turkey’s “strategic interests in Western Libya remain a constant factor, unlikely to be swayed by recent engagements.”

Highlighting the complexities of the situation, Al-Tekbali remarked that Turkey’s “improving ties with major Arab nations do not necessarily translate into consensus on Libya’s contentious issues.” He pointed out the stark division between Libya’s eastern and western factions. This division is exacerbated by Turkey’s support for Abdel-Hamid Dbaiba, the Prime Minister of the Tripoli-based Government of National Unity (GNU), solidifying Turkey’s influence in the region.

In his concluding remarks, the MP recognized the “general desire for a resolution among Libyan factions,” but emphasized the “challenging nature of the situation due to the conflicting positions of the involved parties.” This underscores the difficulties in achieving a comprehensive and lasting peace agreement in Libya.

Al-Tekbali’s insights reflect the intricate nature of Libya’s political landscape, deeply influenced by external forces like Turkey. The support for the GNU has been a critical element in the ongoing conflict, shaping the balance of power, and impacting efforts towards national unity and stability. As Libya works towards a future of stability and unity, understanding the roles of these external actors is essential for grasping the full scope of the challenges and opportunities in the nation’s path to peace and governance.
