The United Nations expels the Prime Minister of Tripoli, and the United States extends its hand to European failures
The UN envoy to Libya, Abdallah Bathily, handed over the evacuation to current Prime Minister Dbeiba. A surprising proposal marks the return of the United States to the Libyan quicksand. The United States let things go for years, on the condition that it was not excluded from the game, and began a stabilization process that did not give advantages to Moscow and did not create the conditions for setting fire to neighboring countries as well.
