Japa via Libyan route – By Francis Ewherido
They embarked on that perilous journey mainly from West Africa, Central Africa, East Africa and Asia. The insecurity on the Libyan route once you leave Nigeria and the hardship the migrants go through are unimaginable. But trying to japa via the Libyan route is the height of foolishness. In spite of all the sordid stories of the Libyan route, some youngsters are still warming up to go to Europe via Libya. I watched a video where youngsters were being tutored on the dangers of the Libyan route.

America’s 11 years long planning in Libya is about to be blown up
Libya in TurmoilSince 2011, Libya has been embroiled in a massive political and security crisis. There are now two rival governments in the east and west of Libya, a result of that war. Now, it is being said that Gaddafi’s son Seif-al-Islam is going to stand in the presidential elections of Libya. However, the ICC is not concerned about peace and justice in Libya otherwise it would’ve initiated charges against the US and Europe which destroyed Libya. Therefore, if he wins the elections and comes to power, then the West will suffer a tremendous failure in Libya.

Athens-Tripoli relations in crisis mode
Dendias departed Tripoli without disembarking and flew to Benghazi, Libya’s rival center of power in the east, where he met with Eastern Libyan Commander Khalifa Haftar. “Today’s visit to Libya, as scheduled, started from Tripoli, where I was to meet with President Menfi. As a result, I cut short my visit to Tripoli and departed for Benghazi, where the schedule was followed, as planned,” Dendias told reporters Thursday. The former agreement, condemned internationally, is based on Turkish claims that islands, such as Crete, cannot have a continental shelf. Seeing that Turkey had an outsize influence in Tripoli, Greece appeared at one point to throw in its lot with Haftar, whose military campaign to seize Tripoli ultimately fell far short of that goal.

Malta’s migration diplomacy: from hobnobbing with Macron to flirting with Meloni?
But Malta’s support for the Italian position, suggests a change in its diplomatic response to problems created by the Italian far right. It also suggests that given a choice between France and Italy, Spain remains closer to its northern neighbour. Meloni flexes her musclesSignificantly, the statement by the four Mediterranean nations is overshadowed by an escalation in tension between France and Italy. Unlike Salvini, Meloni has been careful to frame her migration policy in an appeal to “European solidarity”, thus deviating from the far-right’s xenophobic instincts. In fact, Meloni herself was elected on a platform which included a unlikely naval blockade of Libya to stop departures.

Greek FM snubs Libya counterpart in spat over Turkish exploration deal
TRIPOLI: Greek Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias snubbed his Libyan counterpart on Thursday, abandoning a planned visit to Tripoli to avoid being welcomed by the top diplomat of a government allied with Turkiye. Dendias visit to the nation comes after Libya’s Tripoli-based regime signed a deal with Ankara over exploration for Mediterranean oil and gas that is bitterly contested by Athens. But “in a surprising and insulting move, the Greek minister refused to disembark from his plane and left without any clarifications,” it added. Shortly afterwards, it recalled its ambassador from Athens and summoned his Greek counterpart in Tripoli, government spokesman Mohamad Hamouda told Al-Ahrar, a satellite news channel. But their meeting was “cancelled as the Libyan Foreign Ministry reneged on an agreement” that he would not meet Mangoush, according to a statement by the Greek Foreign Ministry.

Dendias: Mangoush “tried to force” meeting by showing up at Tripoli airport
Greek Foreign Minister, Nikos Dendias, directly accused his Libyan counterpart Najla Mangoush of trying to “force” a meeting between the two of them upon his arrival at Tripoli airport on Thursday. Dendias arrived at Tripoli airport but refused to disembark from the plane when he realized that waiting to greet him on the tarmac was Mangoush. The Greek Foreign Ministry said in a statement following the incident that Dendias wanted to only meet with the Chairman of the Libyan Presidential Council, Mohamed al-Menfi, in Tripoli but not with Mangoush. This led the Greek top diplomat to cancel the Tripoli part of his trip to Libya and head for Benghazi in the eastern part of the country. “Today’s visit to Libya, as planned, started from Tripoli, where I was to meet with President Menfi,” Dendias told reporters in Benghazi.
