We are deeply concerned about the dangerous escalation that has emerged in
Libya with the military campaign to Tripoli. Such attempts will only lead
to harm for the civilian population, a drift to instability in the country
and hampering of the UN-facilitated political process.
In this respect,it is necessary that common sense and wisdom prevail to
swiftly decrease the tension and restore calm. While extending its full
support to the efforts of the UN Secretary-General and his Special
Representative to Libya to decrease tension, Turkey attaches importance to
the international community’s common stance and resolve on this matter.
