Qatar has condemned the storming of the Al Zwaitina oil seaport in eastern Libya by forces affiliated to retired Major General Khalifa Haftar and stopping the export of oil.
It stressed that the country’s wealth belongs to the Libyan people and that neither party has the right to manipulate Libyan capabilities or use it as a pressure card.
In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs pointed to the suffering of thousands of displaced persons and immigrants who are not guilty in this war waged by armed groups outside the legitimacy of the state, pointing out that they aspire to live in safety and dignity in Libyan homeland that is not torn by internal conflicts or regional and international disputes.
“In the interest of the Libyan people, above all considerations, Qatar calls on the international community and the Security Council to assume their responsibilities, so that all armed groups outside the law are criminalised, the integrity of the Libyan lands are preserved, and the legal and political foundations for the construction of a civil state are established,” the statement added.
