Turkey Must End Sending Syrian Militants to Libya, Macron Says

On January 19, an international conference focused on resolving the situation in Libya was held in Berlin. Among the participants were Libyan conflict parties, the leaders of Russia and Turkey, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, French President Emmanuel Macron, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, and representatives from several other countries, reports ermenihaber.am.

During the conference, French President Emmanuel Macron stated that Turkey must cease sending Syrian militants to Libya. "I must express how concerned I am about the dispatching of Syrian and foreign fighters to Tripoli. This must come to an end. Those who think they are benefitting from this situation do not even realize the risks they are exposing themselves and us to," Macron said.
