Parliament Speaker Mustafa Şentop highlighted Turkey’s support for Libya’s territorial integrity in a meeting with his Libyan counterpart Aguila Saleh in the capital Ankara on Tuesday. “For Turkey, Libya is a whole with its west, east and south and cannot be divided. He noted that the newly formed government appointed by the House of Representatives prioritizes presidential and parliamentary elections, as he pointed to Turkey’s support for Libya in this regard. Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu in December said that Saleh and Haftar had backtracked on a potential meeting. Once again, two competing governments are vying for control in Libya, already torn by more than a decade of civil war.
