The UN-recognised Prime Minister Abdul Hamid Dbeibah was given a warm welcome by Prime Minister Robert Abela when he visited Malta last week. Referring to the eruption of violence in Libya in the last few weeks, Abela said, “The last days in Libya have been difficult. The peace and stability in the past two years was something we were happy to see.”Abela promised his Libyan counterpart that Malta would “remain friends” with the people of Libya. Malta can do little to help Libya regain stability except to put pressure on the EU to give more importance to brokering a peace deal between the Libyan warring factions. Today Turkey supports Dbeibah and Libya while Russia and Egypt support the challenger Fathi Bashagha and his militias.
