🇱🇾 Why are regional countries involved in Libya's conflict? - Inside Story
Libya has been in a heightened state of violence for much of the past 6 years. The overthrow of leader Muammar Gaddafi has created a dangerous politically-divided atmosphere. The country has two rival seats of power; along with several dozen armed groups fighting for control. Now, a leaked UN report has shed some light on who's backing some of those forces. It says the United Arab Emirates and Egypt have been supplying weapons to armed groups on the ground. That is in violation of a United Nations arms embargo. So, what is at stake for the UAE and Egypt's involvement in Libya? Presenter: Mohammed Jamjoom. Guests: Sami Hamdi - Editor-in-Chief of International Interest. Pieter Wezeman - Senior Researcher in the Arms and Military Expenditure Programme at the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute. Anas El Gomati - Director of the Sadeq Institute, a Think Tank based in Tripoli.
