Sudan, armed groups sign new implementation agreement for Juba peace agreement

Near past:

The west supported the color revolution in the Middle East for their own gain of globalization and global hegemony, and unfortunately such reckless western foreign policy caused great divisions between the locals who had their own historical understanding of Middle Eastern society and its organic sustainability. Gradually the Middle East turned into a place for nursing racial and ideological hatred with violence and terror.

Libya and the geopolitical interests of its neighbors

Since the overthrow of the government in 2011, Libya has been divided. Tripoli and the West sought to control the eastern part of the country, a fiefdom of the “Libyan National Army” (LNA) led by Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar. Subsequently, dual power prevailed and the country ceased to function as a single State.

NATO’s destruction of Libya

Robert Gates, the former US Secretary of Defense, wrote in his memoirs that when the decision was made to launch a military attack against Afghanistan in 2001, that nobody in Washington had a real idea of how complex a nation it is. This included Afghanistan’s various ethnic groups and the rivalries between urban and rural areas of the country.
