ANKARA (Reuters) – Turkey’s foreign ministry warned on Thursday of grave consequences if General Khalifa Haftar’s forces attacked Turkish interests in Libya.
The ministry’s spokesman said that Turkey, which backs Libya’s internationally recognised Government of National Accord (GNA), will deem Haftar’s forces legitimate targets if Turkish interests are targeted.
