Great news. As Algerians, we want a stronger Turkish presence in bringing peace into Libya, and making sure that the UAE and other vulture elements stay away from Libya.
The martyrs will never be forgotten. But the western influence over algeria is still very dominant aswell as North africa in general. Im just making this comment because you said
Unfortunately, Egypt never had sovereign positions and always changed its principles when it became convenient. In the past It fought Israel and failed, and so now it has become a staunch ally of Israel. In Libya, Egypt doesn't have its own policy, but it is rather executing UAE's and Israel's policies on Libya. Pretty shameful I'd say.
There are interferences and influences all over the planet, but with variation. You claim in your view that Algeria is subject to Western influence, then tell me why Algeria's next door neighbor Morocco has already normalized with Israel, while Algeria hasn't and never will, as long as the Zionist entity refuses to vacate Palestinian land to allow the Palestinians build their rightful state. The Arab regimes who obey the West, have stopped supporting Palestine altogether.
Another proof that Haftar, one way or another along with the UAE, managed to devise a plan to rig up the electionsHaftar, militia refuse to subordinate to Libyan government

Putschist Gen. Khalifa Haftar's so-called Libyan National Army (LNA) will not be subordinate to the current Libyan government, the warlord stated Monday.
In a speech marking the 81st anniversary of the founding of the Libyan army, Haftar underlined that his militia "won't be subject to any authority except to an authority that will be directly elected by the people."
Haftar, who is based in the eastern city of Benghazi, added that his militia would withstand any pressure sent in its direction and hinted that it would hinder the city's attempts to work with the current Libyan authorities.
In February, Haftar declared his support for the new transitional government and a “peaceful and democratic alternation of power” in Libya, according to a statement released by his office. He had welcomed the appointment of the new government, hailing its leaders as “national figures.” However, his recent actions contradict his words.
Haftar continues to operate independently from the legitimate government and continues to lead armed militias, calling himself the commander in chief of the Libyan army.
Libya has been in turmoil since 2011 when a NATO-backed uprising toppled longtime dictator Moammar Gadhafi, who was later killed. The country was since split between rival administrations in the east and the west.
Haftar’s 2019 offensive, supported by Egypt, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Russia, collapsed in June 2020 when the Tripoli government, with support from Turkey and Qatar, gained the upper hand. A U.N.-brokered cease-fire was reached in October that stopped hostilities.
Oil-rich Libya is now ruled by a transitional government tasked with preparing the nation for elections in December.

The UAE is a threat to the whole region. The Emirati population is less than one million, with no war history and not fit for combat at all, yet UAE ruler MBZ (Mohammad Bin Zayd) has created his army composed of mercenaries from Africa and Latin America who have been creating havoc in committing war crimes in Yemen, Libya and elsewhere. Several European countries are now wanting MBZ as a war criminal This situation has to end.
With help from the UK and the US, Gulf states have invested tons of money in Sovereign funds. They have very small population and can live from that alone. Our problem is with the UAE in particular. The UAE is a proxy regime acting on behalf of Israel, France, Russia and other powers outside the Muslim world with the intention to destroy strong countries such as Turkey in the region. The UAE has no strength of its own, the pilots it used to bomb Yemen and Libya were Australians and French, yet the sooner the UAE is exposed and weakened, the better off the region will be.
"I don't think people will be happy to be governed by tribal chiefs." The populations of the Gulf states see it differently, unfortunately. Saudis and Emiratis see their regimes as the "best" in the world. They don't believe in the democratic systems that countries like Tunisia and Algeria are in the process implementing. Gulf states and doing every thing to sabotage Muslim countries that have democratic institutions and freedom.
