Certainly , he did not have any instruction from his government in this regard. Therefore , the government in Tripoli is supposed to review its own policy and then assign duities to the envoys.<\/p>\n<p>Now when Haftar and Sons have signed a big deal of weapons and jets with Pakistan, the Libyan government has finally decided to show up that they are also present in Pakistan. For that , the envoy was called to meet the Foreign Minister and take directions to pursue closer contacts with Pakistan , definitely with military command.<\/p>\n<p>Most astonishingly, the Ambassador of Libya recieved an award of good performance from a think tank in Islamabad. But neither the think tank nor the embassy could share in the media any achievement of the embassy. And what achievement could have been claimed when the rival warlords were being welcomed in Pakistan. and the embassy was a silent spectator only.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Yes ! the enovy can only issue any statement or response only when his government directs him. It means , the Libyan gov itself remained in confusion? What to do What not?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s see how the ambassador covers the backlog of easy going through all last four years. It is almost an impossible challenge to take the bilateral cooperation to a level where it has reached in between Pakistan and General Haftar.
