Libyan "Al-Wefaq" criticizes Cairo's statements and calls on Sisi to stop supporting "war criminal"

The Presidential Council of the National Accord government accused Egypt of threatening Libya, and demanded Cairo - in a statement - to support peace and stability in the country, instead of supporting armed formations outside the internationally recognized legitimacy.

The Al-Wefaq government statement called on the Egyptian authorities to review their position on the Libyan crisis, and to play a positive role that reflects the depth of historical relations between the two countries, and strive to continue and develop them, rejecting any threat to national sovereignty.

The statement stressed the legitimacy and legitimacy of the government in carrying out its work, the independence of its decisions, and its authority over all institutions, reminding "everyone of the national epic that led it against the terrorist organization (Islamic State) IS in Sirte (the Libyan coast) and eliminating it in record time."

The Council pointed out that it hoped that Egypt would have a fundamental role that won the trust of all in the framework of supporting stability and civil peace in Libya, "instead of supporting armed formations outside the internationally recognized legitimacy led by a war criminal, who attacked the capital, a symbol of Libya's unity and stability." In reference to the retired Major General Khalifa Hifter.

The second deputy of the head of the Supreme Council of State in Libya, Fawzi Al-Oqab, condemned the statements of Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, in which he described the national reconciliation government as a prisoner of armed and terrorist formations, and said it was a "blatant interference" in the Libyan matter.

In a tweet posted on his Twitter page, Al-Oqab said that the Presidential Council is the result of a national agreement, and that the support of the UN Security Council has increased its support for a circumstance in which two governments were fighting legitimacy at the time.

The punishment stated that external states are concerned only with recognizing the independence of states and not their national authority, because determining their legitimacy or not is a monopoly of a national decision, and talking about it from any external party is a blatant interference.

On Sunday, Al-Sisi accused the Al-Wefaq government - internationally recognized - of "stealing will" and "a prisoner of terrorist militia."

Al-Sisi added, during his participation in the work of the "World Youth Forum" held in the Egyptian city of Sharm El-Sheikh, "It was the first of us to intervene directly in Libya, and we have the ability, but we did not."

Last Thursday, eight months after his forces failed to storm Tripoli, Haftar spoke of the start of a "decisive battle" to advance toward the heart of the capital.

After that, the President of the Presidential Council of the National Accord Government, Fayez al-Sarraj, confirmed that the rebels had defeated the mercenaries and the invaders, and demanded that the people not believe the lies of those he described as delusions.

Military reinforcements
In the meantime, the media center for Operation Libyan Volcano Anger of the Government of Conciliation announced the sending of reinforcements from the forces of the Central Military Region to the sites assigned to them, without clarifying the location of these sites.

The move of these forces, which are likely to be present in the fighting axes south of the capital, Tripoli, comes less than 24 hours after the cities of Misurata, Zliten, Khums, Sirte, Muslata, Al-Zawiya, and Kabao declared the state of alienation, to confront the forces of retired Major General Khalifa Hifter.
