Summary/Abstract: At the beginning of May, an agreement was reached by the leaders of two rival powers in Libya—the prime minister of the Government of National Accord (GNA), Fayaz al-Sarraj, and the commander of the Libyan National Army (LNA), Gen. Khalifa Haftar. The Libya Quartet (EU, UN, LAS, AU) could help moderate the growing influence of third countries, including Russia, on the parties to the conflict. Russia is beginning to replicate its actions in Syria, aiming to increase its involvement so that any agreement without it won’t be possible.
