There is no united government of Libya so the GNU cannot pledge Libya to support the Turkish claims. Dbeibah obtained Turkish and now Russian assistance to gradually gain control over the Central Bank of Libya and the National Oil Corporation. Dbeibah insists he can only be removed by national elections yet Dbeibah is the biggest obstacle to national elections. Bashagha backed Turkish intervention in 2019 and 2020, but turned against the Turks when the Turks indicated they were not leaving Libya. Arabs don’t like or trust Turkey and the Turks don’t care.
