U.S. Ambassador warns against renewed military actions

Libyan Cloud News Agency – Tunisia

The U.S. Ambassador to Libya, Richard Norland, has expressed his concern about credible reports that significant military actions are being contemplated by forces affiliated with both parties to the conflict in the near future.

“Whether offensive or preemptive in nature, such actions would violate the understandings reached in Berlin,” he noted.

He called on the parties and on their external supporters to carefully consider the risks inherent in such actions, and to redouble support for the UN-facilitated security dialogue that is meeting in Geneva in an effort to agree on a lasting ceasefire.
