Bahgat El-Ebeidy, the Egyptian writer residing in Austria and founder of the International Union of Egyptian Citizens Abroad, said that President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi has worked since he rose to power in Egypt to maintain Egyptian and Arab national security alike, and that he has spared no effort to solve all the crises that hit the region.

El-Ebeidy added that Egypt, through its president, El-Sisi, presented in various international forums the state’s vision to solve those problems that have occurred in the last decade in the Arab region, which had a direct impact on Egypt, the region, and the world.

El-Ebeidy stated that the Egyptian vision presented by President El-Sisi excluded in all cases the resort to power and the use of arms as a solution to the differences that arose between the various conflicting powers in those countries, and this is the belief of the president that violence will not resolve any conflict, nor will he have a final result that leads to the stability of these states.

The founder of the International Federation of Egyptian Citizen Abroad stated that among the countries struck by crises and shared by the problems is the state of Libya, which is one of the most important countries that represents a strategic depth for the Egyptian national security, and hence there was double interest by President El-Sisi with what is happening over there so he encouraged several parties to go through the negotiation processes.

He assured that President Sisi invitation today for both Aguila Saleh, the head of the Libyan Parliament, the only legitimate representative of the Libyan people, and Field Marshal Khalifa Hafter, the Libyan army commander at the Federal Palace, is extremely important, and sends many messages at the local, regional and global levels.

The message send is that Egypt will not leave the Libyan crisis, especially after the blatant interference from the Turkish leadership in the Libyan issue, and sending terrorist mercenaries loyal to Erdogan to fight on the side of his comrade in terrorist Brotherhood member, Fayez al-Sarraj, in addition to providing him with weapons, which is what He had an important role in the results of the military battles on Libyan soil.

The founder of the International Federation of the Egyptian Citizen Abroad continued that President El-Sisi, in his press conference with Saleh and Hafter, reaffirmed the necessity of a political solution to the Libyan crisis, and also called for a return to the negotiating table in order to reach a solution that is beneficial to all the Libyan people.

He also pointed out the utmost importance of what President El-Sisi stated, the necessity of removing all terrorist elements from Libya, as well as the extreme necessity that foreign parties and countries should not interfere in the Libyan conflict, which puts the international community and the leaders of the active states in front of their responsibilities, as well as the parties in the sisterly state of Libya were placed before their responsibilities.
