Egypt’s Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry said on Saturday that the neighbouring countries to Libya are most affected by the turmoil and terrorism within its territories, including illegal immigration and weapons smuggling. During his speech in the “Libyan Talks” meeting that is held in Cairo, Shoukry added that the Libyan factions should reach a political solution if they want to diminish terrorism. Haftar also stressed the importance of supporting the Libyan army in its war on terrorism, in order to maintain the sovereignty of Libyan institutions. He also praised all the initiatives that aim to seek solutions to the Libyan turmoil. The country is divided into several political factions and militants have taken over several parts in Libya.
