By rejecting the leadership of the UN-backed government and supporting its rival warlord Khalifa Haftar by the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Egypt, how can the Arab League be considered impartial on Libya?
On Tuesday the Arab League called on its members to help prevent foreign interference in Libya following Turkey’s signing of a maritime agreement with the UN-recognised legitimate government and its pledge to use military force, if necessary, to protect the Tripoli government.

In the eyes of critics, it appears that the primary duty of the league has been to focus on Turkey’s foreign policy, rather than the resolution to the many issues plaguing Arab citizens, such as crippling poverty and political instability.
