There is no foreign State in Libya that does not defend its own interests,” journalist and author Mohammed Al-Jerah confirmed during a televised interview for Libyan WTV channel and Tabadul Platform.
“Any intervening State does not only have a particular interest in Libya, but also intervene according to a specific interest such as the economic, ideological and geopolitical considerations, in addition to the national security.” He said.
“Libya has become a sphere where the states are settling scores… These States consider that they have the right to be a leading force through increasing military, economic, or political influence, and even through what is called “soft power,” Al-Jerah added.
Mohammed Al-Jerah also stressed that that there is a great competition between the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, albeit in different ways.
He accused the authority of not being able to govern, considering it as being held hostage to specific persons or being subject to the authority of certain groups.
Concerning a payoff accusation against Ali Al-Dabiba, Al-Jerah stressed that the UNSMIL is informed on the subject, confirming that Al-Dabiba is not the only one accused of offering a bribe.
He also called upon Stephanie Williams to investigate the matter.
