Turkey will send troops to Libya if ‘invited’ by UN-backed Tripoli government – Erdogan
Turkish leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that Ankara will consider deploying soldier to help the United Nations-backed government in Libya fight off rival factions in the civil war-torn country.
Erdogan made his comment in a meeting with Tunisian President Kais Saied during his surprise visit to Tunisia on Wednesday.
We haven’t been present anywhere uninvited. If there will be an invitation, we will assess it, of course.
Erdogan’s spokesperson previously told reporters that parliament is working on a bill that would allow deploying soldier to Libya so they could help the internationally-recognized Government of National Accord (GNA), based in Tripoli in the western part of the country.
