LNA Spokesperson condemns Qatar's, Turkey's participation in Palermo Conference

Sicily, Nov 15 (Sputnik) The spokesperson for the Libyan National Army (LNA), which backs Libya's Tobruk-based parliament, Ahmed Mismari, believes that Qatar and Turkey should not have been invited to the recent Palermo conference on Libyan settlement since they had nothing to do with the issue and only sought to "defend the interests of terrorists" that they support in the country.
The international conference, organized by Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte, was held in Palermo on the Italian island of Sicily on Monday and Tuesday. It was attended, among others, by representatives of the two opposing Libyan governments — the head of the UN-backed Government of National Accord (GNA), Fayez Sarraj, and LNA commander Khalifa Haftar.
"The conference concerns Libya and was hosted by Italy. What does Qatar have to do with this? What does Turkey have to do with this? ... These countries attended [the conference] in order to defend the interests of terrorist groups," Mismari said late on Wednesday, as quoted by the Sky News Arabia broadcaster.
