The undeniable truth is that so-called warlord Khalifa Belqasim Haftar always had the discreet backing of many other strong European, western and other countries. There were many reliable reports in reputable magazines and newspapers during the last three years, which were totally ignored by the Foreign Ministry under George Vella, who is now President.
Also, the fact is that countries like Libya and many others in North Africa need strong, determined leaders to control the many different tribal and cultural groups.
