Libya plunged into deadly chaos after the overthrow and |
|
killing of its long-serving ruler Muammar Gaddafi |
|
following a bombing campaign by the US-led NATO military |
|
alliance in 2011. nThis intervention ignited clashes |
|
between rival militias backed by foreign powers that |
|
poured weapons and mercenaries into the country. nSince |
|
2015, Libya has been divided between the UN-recognized |
|
government in Tripoli and parallel institutions in |
|
Tobruk, allied to renegade military commander General |
|
Khalifa Haftar. Attempts to hold an election that would |
|
unite the country have failed up until now. nThe country |
|
has experienced relative peace since a 2020 following |
|
truce between the main eastern and western sides. |
|
However, intermittent clashes between rival militia |
|
groups continue to threaten the country's future.nThis |
|
week, we are focussing on Libya, a once prosperous North |
|
African country that was destroyed during a disastrous |
|
NATO led invasion in 2011. nThe second part of our |
|
program will be on the situation in Niger after the |
|
military takeover in the country last month.n. |
