Obama Says Raids Serves US National Security.
Pulbished on:
Washington, 3 August 2016(Lana) US President Barak Obama on Tuesday
considered the US air strikes against State Organisation Da'esh
positions in Sirte served the interests of US national security and
those of European allies.
In a press conference at the White House, Obama said 'it is in the
interest of the US national security in the war against Da'esh to
enable the Libyan forces to accomplish the mission'.
'We work in partnership with them so that Da'esh will not have
stronghold in Libya even when the country is going through a long
process to put in place effective government and security apparatus,
Obama told the press conference.
The matter does not concern us alone, but Europeans and others have
an interest in a stable Libya, Obama said, noting that the lack of
stability has contributed to some problems including the crisis of
migration to Europe and the human disasters between Libya and Europe.
