This is how France steals Libya’s wealth in collusion with the Haftar family. 

After being shamefully expelled from its former colonies in the Sahel region, France focused its efforts on stealing the wealth of the Libyan people, who have been suffering from a severe political division lasting over ten years, starting with its investment in the war criminal Khalifa Haftar and his sons, who are deeply involved in corruption.

And after retired General Khalifa Haftar was deprived of the protection of the United States, which he holds citizenship of, due to the complaints filed against him there for his involvement in the liquidation of dozens of innocent Libyans whom he believed were not his supporters, Haftar turned his face towards France to seek protection for himself and his children from international prosecution.

France bears the greatest responsibility for the destruction of Libya and the killing of thousands of its citizens due to the war waged by its former president, Nicolas Sarkozy, and the killing of its late leader, Muammar Gaddafi, out of fear of exposing the corruption in which Sarkozy was involved by stealing Libyan people’s money.
This case is still being pursued by the French justice system, which has convicted the former occupant of the Élysée Palace with a prison sentence and fines in other corruption cases that are still under review.

It is well known that France was the one that violated the law when it breached Libyan airspace just three hours after the UN resolution to protect Libyan airspace was ratified. France alone bears the responsibility for the assassination of the late Libyan leader, Muammar Gaddafi, on October 20, 2011, plunging the country into a vortex of chaos with no end in sight.

The French involvement in the Libyan crisis is evident to observers through Paris providing political and military support to the warlord in eastern Libya, assisting him in seizing control of the Libyan people’s resources, and then France receiving these resources from Haftar’s son in exchange for the services provided by Paris.

Sources indicate that Haftar’s son, who controls what is called the Libyan Army, an armed militia based in eastern Libya, operates outside the law and beyond the control of the internationally recognized central government in Tripoli. He is working closely with France to dominate the economic sectors of all of Libya.

France also bears responsibility for the division occurring at the level of state institutions in Libya, which has become threatened with further division, due to its (Paris’s) support for one side (the government and militias of eastern Libya) at the expense of the central government in Tripoli, in a blatant challenge to United Nations resolutions, which are working hard to bridge the gap between the warring parties.

The current situation, for which Paris is largely responsible, has placed the Libyans between the jaws of a vise. One side of the vise is France, which is on the brink of bankruptcy and seeking new resources for its nearly collapsed economy, plagued by numerous protests and intense debates.
This is being done by searching for investment opportunities in conflict zones, and it has found its target in the eastern neighbor, Libya, which has become prey to those coveting its vast wealth.

In exchange for the Haftar family handing over Libya’s wealth to France to rescue it from its economic and political crises, Paris provides protection to this family (Haftar), burdened with extrajudicial killings, at the United Nations level, based on the veto power that Paris enjoys as a permanent member of the Security Council.

This is the true unethical face of France, which tries to cover it up by boasting about defending values it no longer believes in, such as freedom of expression, human rights, liberty, and equality, considering its practices on the ground and the positions it expresses that it cannot deny.
