Pulbished on:
Brussels, 15.03.2015 - (Lana) An European familiar source said , that
the EU does not see an alternative to political solution in Libya ,
acknowledging the difficulty to imagine the possibility of failure of
this dialogue.
Italian AKI news agency , quoted from the source as saying :"the EU
relation department , is in the process of thinking about the
possibility of preparing a civilian-military mission , to support the
upcoming Libyan government" , asserting that , this could not be
achieved , but only after the Libyan parties reach an accord on
forming a national unity government.
The source didn't rule-out that , foreign minister of member states
in the union , which will meet tomorrow Monday in Brussels , to
mandate the foreign relation department to prepare for the project ,
on how to aid the upcoming Libyan government.
He stressed on the EU's continuation in providing the logistical and
operational support for the negotiations , and the international
envoy 'Bernardino Leon' in his efforts with the negotiating Libyan
parties.
The source , rejected that there are consensus among member states in
the union , about lifting the arms embargo imposed on Libya.
The union officials had discussed the possibility of sending an
European mission to contribute in securing the airport in the
capital Tripoli , to support border control , enhancing institutional
capacity , and linking all this with the success of the dialogue , as
well as agreeing on a national unity government.
The European Union fears , that the crisis duration could extend ,
and the situation would be out of control , which will make this
country a shelter for terrorist groups , and a corridor for illegal
immigrant towards Europe.
