Video: Are More Arms the Answer for Libya?
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

From Al Jazeera. Any opinions expressed are those of the authors, and do not necessarily reflect the views of Libya Business News.

Four years after the uprising that toppled longtime leader Muammar Gaddafi, Libya remains a nation divided. Rival governments and their respective armed forces are competing for power, as opposing militias battle for control.

Now the UN is warning that the added threat posed by ISIL is 'real and imminent', adding that the group will 'stop at nothing' to consolidate its influence.

The UN recognised government in Tobruk is pressing for the easing of an arms embargo, so it can get hold of heavy weapons to fight ISIL. It's also taking part in UN-brokered talks in Morocco, with Libya's legally installed government in Tripoli.

Mediators are trying to get the two camps to form a government of national unity.But can the rivals agree to work together against a common enemy? And are more munitions the answer, in a country already awash with weapons?

Presenter: Sami ZeidanGuests:Mohamed Eljarh - a Non-Resident Fellow at the Rafik Hariri Centre for the Middle East.Oliver Miles - a former British Ambassador to Libya.Anas El-Gomati - Director of the Sadeq Institute, a think tank based in Tripoli.
