Libya intervention is needed Western
One of the world scene that is not followed with due attention is Libyan. The
country is facing a deep institutional crisis due to the presence of
two executive directors, which, in fact, divided the nation and do not
allow the necessary governance and decision, especially against the
advance of the Islamic state. The
position of Libya should put on alert and action the European nations,
especially those bordering the Mediterranean, who have a vested interest
in the stability of the country. Instead,
for now the European strategy appears characterized by a necessary
unity of purpose and international organizations contributing to this
state of things, not making their voices heard. In
view of the village, in addition to the political division between the
Government of Tobruk, internationally recognized, and to Tripoli, which,
on the contrary, does not enjoy the diplomatic recognition, it
accentuates the problem of the presence of the Islamic state, which
becomes the third subject of contention, taking advantage of the large power vacuums in Libya. In
this context, the actor appears weaker the government, democratically
elected, but forced to flee to Tobruk, which would need practical help,
framed within a more strategic. The
government that took office in Tripoli, has some large areas of
ambiguity for which contiguity with the Islamic militias and the use of
migrants that has, as a weapon of blackmail to the West, by replicating
the strategy of Gaddafi. The
coastal center of the country, that is the capital cities, where the
city of Sirte, appears less guarded and this promotes the penetration of
the Islamic state, which relies on the arsenals of Gaddafi. To
seek a solution to this situation the government of Tobruk had
requested the intervention of the Arab League, but the meeting did not
lead to any solution to the divisions within the international
organization, due to the lack of decision on which government favor . The
doubts of the Arab League are due, in part, to religious that mixes
with the political necessity and thus prevents the organization to take
sides with the legitimately elected government. This
problem, albeit for different reasons, is what prevents a clear
diplomatic line also to Western countries, especially those in the
Mediterranean, which for reasons of expediency, prefer to maintain a
dialogue with both the executive. This
need could be understood if Western governments were able to make a
diplomatic effort to allow a productive dialogue between the two
governments in the area, conversely, as in practice, appears only a
tactic that does not yield any result. The
Arab League summit was convened to allow the government to Tobruk to
request the formation of a military force against the caliphate, but no
concrete action has been taken and it did not go beyond the statements
of principle on the need for a strategy common against terrorism. The
Arab League will meet again on August 27, but no guarantee of arriving
at a decision able to prevent the advance of the Islamic state. However,
the request of the Government of Tobruk, may be examined by Western
countries, especially as an investment on their safety; certainly
the decision is difficult because it means an entry into the war and
may expose countries participating in this possible military retaliation
of terrorists, but the only alternative is to leave the southern shore
of the Mediterranean in the hands of Islamic extremism, which It could join dangerously with the Syrian and African. The
moment of choice will become inevitable sooner or later, because the
only diplomacy does not seem to be enough in such complex, certainly is
necessary to cover the United Nations, but postponed it still means only
delay, and thus make it more complicated, a move almost certainly
indispensable.
