Qatar’s foreign minister says the Gulf state backs efforts to end instability and ‘foreign interference’ in Libya. Qatar has reiterated its support to Libya’s internationally-backed political process, which aims to end 10 years of chaos and “foreign interference” in the North African country. “Our exchanges were fruitful, in particular on support for the transition process in Libya … Qatar’s position is firm,” he told reporters, standing alongside his Libyan counterpart, Najla al-Mangoush. Since Libya’s new government took power, several countries have reopened embassies, and al-Mangoush said she hoped that Doha would soon follow suit. But in October, rival groups signed a truce, setting in motion a United Nations-led process.
