Staring at the ring around your finger

“It’s the return of the spat between the Nawasis and Bashagha from a few months ago -- we knew it would circle back after the war,” said Tarek Megerisi, a Libya expert and policy fellow at the European Council on Foreign Relations. “There’s also a political layer. Sarraj hears whispers going around from the international community that they wish they had Bashagha to deal with.”
The U.S. embassy said it appreciates its partnerships with Sarraj and Bashagha and urged cooperation.
Two officials close to Sarraj, who has accused the protesters of lawlessness, said Bashagha had gone beyond his mandate as a minister. One of them said Bashagha alienated the militias rather than patiently trying to absorb them, an approach he said could have led to battles in Tripoli. Bashagha’s supporters say the militias had become too entrenched and were acting as a parallel state.

Se ha ragione sulle milizie, bisogna lasciarlo fare.
Quando non ci sono le basi per il riassorbimento, le controversie possono durare per decenni.
Ci sarebbe spazio ancora più risicato per un processo politico.
Nemmeno l'addestramento di nuove leve, previsto da accordi con Italia-Qatar-Turchia, può fare la differenza.

Bashagha è abile a intrattenere relazioni internazionali.
I suoi detrattori sostengono che questo suo orientamento avrebbe come obiettivo gli interessi personali piuttosto che quelli della Libia.


Importantly, Sarraj said protests were illegal and had no permits. Bashagha disputed that. He also refused to acknowledge arrests of protesters by Nawasis as legitimate and demanded their release. 8:11 AM · Aug 30, 2020·Twitter for Android @SameralAtrush 
So in effect whats meant to government's blunt instrument against protests--the minister of interior--is giving the government the middle finger while saying the protesters are justified.

Ha giocato d'astuzia opponendo alla cautela di Serraj la richiesta di indagine pubblica.
Bara, è sicuro di uscirne pulito o ha in programma di uscirne vincitore in altro modo prima della fine dell'inchiesta?
