Libyan crisis : Morocco believes military action would be the wrong solution

Jumaa al-Qamati, the personal envoy of Libya's prime minister of the Government of National Accord Fayez Al-Sarraj, was received, Wednesday, by Foreign Affairs Minister Nasser Bourita.

«Morocco is following with great concern the situation in Libya, mainly in the light of the military escalation at the entrance of the capital Tripoli, the consequences that may ensue in terms of human tragedies and its impact on the stability in this Maghreb country», Bourita told reporters after his talks with Jumaa al-Qamati.

Once again, the Foreign Minister stressed that «the military option can only further complicate the situation in Libya and affect the stability and security of its citizens», he said, noting that the Kingdom considers that the political process is the best solution to the Libyan crisis.

Morocco rejects General Khalifa Haftar’s assaults on Tripoli, supported financially and politically by Egypt, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia. The same position is adopted by Qatar.
