UK expects to be asked by new Libyan government to deploy troops to train fledging force despite rival factions rejecting unity accord
This comes despite the agreement being denounced as illegitimate by some of the groups that it is meant to unite.
The UK expects to be asked by the new Libyan government to deploy troops to train and advise the country’s fledgling force as it attempts to stabilise Libya and stem the advance of Islamic State, which has a coastal base. A fortnight after sending fighter jets to Syrian skies, the Ministry of Defence is ready to send up to 1,000 troops in a non-combat capacity, the defence secretary, Michael Fallon, announced in an interview with Forces TV.
In a separate statement, David Cameron said: “Importantly, this agreement means the international community can now engage with one unified, representative government in Libya in the fight against Daesh [Isis] and the migrant traffickers.”
