A #ceasefire went into effect in #Libya at midnight as the country’s two rival governments prepared to sign an agreement in #Moscow ahead of a #Berlin conference designed to end the conflict there is planned for later this week. @NarativLive aljazeera.com/news/2020/01/l…
2. The US is one of several countries watching from the sidelines as #Russia and #Turkey consolidate power in #Libya as they have in #Syria and to some extent in #Iraq. @NarativLive
3. The new agreement appears to favor Russian-backed warlord Khalifa #Haftar and his main sponsor Vladimir Putin. @NarativLive
4. #Haftar is a Gaddafi-like figure. US and #NATO intervention in 2011 resulted in #Gadaffi’s death. Since then #Russian and #ISIS backed militias like #Haftar’s have frustrated efforts to establish a democratically-elected government in #Libya. @NarativLive
5. In December, I exposed Donald Trump’s shift in #Libya policy, his ties to Libyan #oil smuggling, a decade-long association with an oligarch and a mysterious $500,000 payment to #Rudy #Giuliani @NarativLive . narativ.org/2020/01/09/tru…
