London, US Ambassador and Special Envoy to Libya Richard Norland said ‘US main goal in Libya is to help Libyans conduct free elections whose results accepted by the wider society, and to assist in withdrawing of all foreign fighters from Libya, Russian and Turkish alike.
In an interview with the London-basedAl Sharq Al Awsat newspaper, Norland said ‘withdrawal of fighters and foreign forces is goal shared most Libyans’, indicating that this is provision implied in all agreements and international conferences convened on Libya and also in the international resolutions including Security Council Resolution No. 2570.
The US Envoy sees that ‘the way to pursue this goal remains a Libyan task and a priority for the Libyan authority, and that the US will continue work with Libyan and international partners to achieve these goals. Libya deserves to retain its sovereignty, he said.
He ruled out a new government to substitute the Government of National Unity.
