Conservative Middle East Council INSIDE LIBYA: CHAOS IN THE MEDITERRANEAN
Conservative Middle East Council INSIDE LIBYA: CHAOS IN THE MEDITERRANEAN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY KEY FINDINGS • Field Marshal Haftar sees his mission as fighting jihadist terrorism. • A large degree of order and governance exists in Eastern Libya. • Despite being under pressure, the East remains stable while the West is plagued by disorder and insecurity. • The House of Representatives is a nucleus for the development of a Libyan Parliamentary system, and has a geographical reach across Libya. • Western Libya, particularly Tripoli itself, is dominated by warlords and criminal gangs; they all have an interest in prolonging the relative confusion in the West. KEY RECOMMENDATIONS • The UK should urgently engage with Haftar, the LNA and the HoR • The UK should support the LNA to secure Libya’s borders and bring an end to the illegal trafficking of people from Libya’s sea ports. • The UK should reconsider its view of the GNA and acknowledge its limited capacity to deliver any kind of governance or security for Libya. 1
