Egypt called the condition of military invasion of Libya

13

The Egyptian leadership drew a “red line” for the Libyan PNS, sitting in Tripoli, after crossing which Cairo will immediately begin a military invasion of a neighboring country. This was announced on June 20, 2020 by President of Egypt Abdel Fattah al-Sisi during a visit to a military facility on the border with Libya.

The Egyptian leader called the condition for direct military participation of the Egyptian Armed Forces in the Libyan conflict - the seizure by the PNS troops of the city of Sirte on the coast and the municipality of Al Joufra in the center of the country. These territories are now under the control of the LNA Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar, reporting to the Libyan Parliament, which sits in Tobruk.



Libyan security is part of Egypt's national security

- said Al-Sisi.

Al-Sisi stressed that any actions of Egypt in Libya will be legitimate in the eyes of the international community. He clarified that this was dictated by the need to protect the borders of Egypt from terrorists, by providing "assistance to the Libyan brothers" in order to end the fratricidal war and begin reconciliation in the country under the leadership of the UN.

The President of Egypt noted that illegitimate interference in the Libyan conflict of “foreign forces” contributes to the spread of terrorism. He called on the warring parties for an immediate ceasefire.

After that, the Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces of Egypt turned to the military. He gave them orders to be ready for combat missions outside Egypt. Then he thanked the Egyptian military for the safety of the 1200-kilometer border with Libya intact since February 2011.

      It’s good that a counterweight to Erdogan has appeared. It is necessary to trim his legs, to the groin, so as not to run through foreign territories, as at home.

          It all depends not on your application. The army of Egypt is quite .... Compare. And the second is support. Those who are interested in this. Explicit, diplomatic. all. If you had been in high school for at least two days, then you would have understood that absence is 0. Zero resistance. Presence is NOT Zero. This is already a subject for discussion. And not the fact that Egypt is the weakest side here. Erdogan, balancing on the verge of a coup that once shocked him, is in a hurry. The chicken whose head has just been chopped off behaves the same way. Runs, rushes, falls and flaps its wings. ANY little victory will pacify the internal enemies. In Egypt, the situation is completely different.

              I am only happy that you are in stock.
              I met such ... in caps, that ..... It is important not WHO, but WHAT. And as the carrier of the cap, explain to me the advantages of a war on two or three fronts over the only one. Turks fall in Libya in just such a situation.

                Musieu is all-knowing, and with what fright did you start to be interested in the opinion of "cap carriers"? Should I start to rejoice that I was promoted from “two days in school” to the level of “cap wearer”? How touching! To tears.
                What are 2-3 fronts? Low-intensity conflicts with very limited resources, he has a "war on 2-3 fronts." Where do you live, grandfather? In what century and in what reality?

      And we will believe that they made the pyramids

      Those pyramids that the ancient Egyptians made of burnt clay bricks have long turned into clay heaps.
      The Cheops Pyramid (Khufu) was made of granite. After the flood, there were no such technologies on Earth. And now it’s possible to repeat this project with great difficulty.

    I have no doubt that someday there will be a winner in this country, to whom the Libyans will pay oil for victory.

    Egypt has a shorter shoulder strength, strong allies (France, Italy, Russia), but Turkey has already crushed half of Libya, and the army is much more prepared. Turkey in Libya is absolutely legitimate, Egyptian troops will be perceived as aggressors by a significant part of Libyans (for historical reasons), it will be difficult to create an Arab coalition. Qatar will support the Muslim brothers, the KSA in a difficult situation and is not able to finance the large-scale actions of the Egyptians.
    I think that the Turks will have to agree, but as the main beneficiary.

    And why Turkey there are no ultimatums from Egypt?
    If you don’t stop breaking the arms embargo - sanctions.
    If you do not withdraw your troops from Libya - sanctions.
    If you use their resources for nothing - war.

    Because those who do not value their own, scolds him, destroys, destroys, betrays - others will rob.
    And one should not think that they will be wrangled among themselves because of the big booty, the probability that they will agree among themselves is much higher.
    Oh, Libyans, this is it, your crane ...

    Nude Nude! The Egyptians decided once again to liquidate a little, along the way. And their heads will not help them. Unless I can understand the desire of their leadership to reduce the excess population. The warriors from the poor Egyptians are still. The Turks will tear them one or two.
