Gaddafi visited Minsk in 2008.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Libya\u2019s political crisis has been ongoing since Gaddafi\u2019s fall. Since March 2022, two different governments have controlled the country, the Tripoli-based and internationally recognized led by Prime Minister Abdul Hamid Dbeibeh and the Benghazi-based government led by Osama Hamada. The LNA, led by 81-year-old Haftar, is loyal to the Libyan House of Representatives in Tobruk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2019, Haftar launched a failed attack on Tripoli. Reports suggested that his troops were aided by Russian mercenaries from the Wagner Group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite lacking international recognition, eastern Libya\u2019s government has more influence domestically, including control of resources and the army.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"insert-block\">\n\n    <div class=\"insert-block__img\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"354\" height=\"236\" src=\"https:\/\/pozirk.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/libia-354x236.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pozirk.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/libia-354x236.jpg 354w, https:\/\/pozirk.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/libia-734x490.jpg 734w, https:\/\/pozirk.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/libia-178x118.jpg 178w, https:\/\/pozirk.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/libia-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/pozirk.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/libia.jpg 1129w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 354px) 100vw, 354px\" \/>                        <label class=\"insert-block__tag--mobile\"> Economy<\/label>\n\n                            <label class=\"insert-block__tag--mobile\"> Politics<\/label>\n\n                <\/div>\n    <div class=\"insert-block__text\">\n                    <label class=\"insert-block__tag\">Economy, Politics<\/label>\n                <h3 class=\"insert-block__title\">Belarusian officials in eastern Libya to discuss ties, including oil business<\/h3>\n        <div class=\"insert-block__descr\">March 11, Pozirk.
