Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, Najla al-Mangoush, visited Libya’s southern border regions over the last few days, including Qatrun.

Mangoush said: “We wish stability to the neighbouring country, Chad, according to what its people decide and what achieves their aspirations and by peaceful means.

In Libya, we have suffered a lot from armed groups of different nationalities crossing our borders and from their employment by the conflicting Libyan parties. We have repeatedly called on these countries to help us to control their citizens and reach solutions in their countries that protect us and protect them from the evils of war.

Today we renew the same demand for the necessity of the departure of foreign forces and mercenaries “Wagner, Janjaweed, Syrians and other mercenaries in all of Libya, whether in the south, west or east by working immediately from our country and cooperating with us through a time plan that will be drawn up by the 5 + 5 Committee under the supervision of the United Nations.

In accordance with the relevant Security Council resolutions, we are working on liberalizing our sovereign decision and preparing for free and fair elections free from the pressure of arms and force.’’
