Qaddafi was killed and his regime was toppled. The author analyses the ongoing conflict between the two opposing parties – one in Tripoli (in the west of the country) and the other in Tobruk (in the east of the country) – each of which has its own parliament, government and military forces. The balance of power is patchy and changing which makes further confrontation very unpredictable. The author also studies the UN mediation efforts to reconcile the opposing parties and to restore the unity of the country. It refers to parliamentary and presidential elections in Libya which are expected to take place in 2018. However, in the foreseeable future the normalization of the present situation in Libya is unlikely.https://www.interanalytics.org/jour/article/view/207libyatripolitobrukonuhefterqaddafizintanturmoildisintegration |
