Libyan national security researcher Faisal Bualraiga said that the recent military movements in the capital, Tripoli, reveal the fragility of the security arrangements sponsored by the United Nations following previous agreements, stressing that the Libyan scene is still governed by armed networks with economic and security interests more than it is by a state structure.
Bualraiga explained, in special statements to Sky News Arabia, that the residents’ rejection of these mobilizations reflects a state of social weariness with the militarization of daily life and the direct threat it poses to civil stability.
He warned that the UN plan is indeed threatened, because the continuation of these movements sends a negative message that weapons are still the final arbiter, and that any political settlement will remain fragile unless accompanied by a deeper security and economic process to reintegrate armed forces.
