The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation of the outgoing Government of “National Unity” in Libya commented on Egypt’s reception of the head of the government assigned by the House of Representatives, Osama Hamad.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation of the Government of National Unity expressed its dissatisfaction and rejection of what it described as “the diplomatic action taken by the Egyptian government to officially receive parallel bodies that do not enjoy any international recognition.”
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs considered in a statement on Sunday that “this step does not have a realistic impact, but it is a departure from the unity of the international position that rejects the return of the country to a state of division and conflict, and that it clearly contradicts the expected Egyptian and Arab role in supporting Libya’s unity and stability and protecting it from attempts at disruption and division.”
The statement said, “Since the beginning of its work, the Government of National Unity has strived to overcome the state of international polarization and deal in a balanced manner with all countries related to the Libyan file, especially with the Arab Republic of Egypt. It has made positive progress in this file, an achievement that the Libyan people are proud of, as they will not accept returning again to the era of parallel governments and regional and international axes that led to Libya as a backyard for battles and wars with an international and regional dimension.”
The Foreign Ministry added in its statement that “while it renews its emphasis that respecting the sovereignty of states, good neighborliness, and supporting their unity and legitimate institutions are fixed principles for building strong relations between states and governments, it strongly warns that such unilateral measures only serve to return to tension, polarization, and local and regional conflict.”
The Egyptian government held the Egyptian government morally and politically responsible for these unilateral measures.
Earlier on Sunday, Egyptian Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly received the head of the government assigned by the House of Representatives, Osama Hamad, in El Alamein City, where the two parties discussed enhancing joint cooperation between the two countries in various fields and the contribution of Egyptian companies to the efforts to rebuild Libya.
