That set the Iranian Ambassador to the u. N. Speakaking that. Wellll s so this wednesday frans the night supplyiying the forces of rogue libyan general heidi farr hofstadter with u. S. Made missiles. Reaching a you an arms embargo. The countrys d Defense Ministry says the weapons discovered that a a come south o of t tripoli lt montnth. Where on usable the statement however does not explain how the missiles were lost . The e fine is likely to be suspicions of paris is indeed backing off on on the ground lets now at the ring in elmont body for analysis on this story is a non resident scholar. At the middle east institute and he joins us from london im not thank you so much for s speaking to us are from twenty four fron. But he has some explaining to do here doesnt it. Yes i think the overall this entire event or this entire episode has really revealed a very deep duplicity in frances Foreign Policy towards libya. Because as definitely surprise a lot of analysts and researchers that look at libya and you have to also take into account the fact that over the past few years france has really tried to play the role of the mediator in libya. So at this point time its really in an unenviaiable posit since the discovery of the jobless. And d my body what punitive measures couould parents facacef any if it is indeed f found to e preaching these you an arms embargoes. You also have to take into account the fact that friends is a major player within the e. U. And its also one of the permanent members of the Un Security Council so i really doubt that there will be. Significant option at that measures that will be taking against that however in terms of these javelins in particular the issue is there are usually and user agreements are not supposed to be preach so well still have to wait and look at what us action will look like given the fact that its been discovered that france support them and thats a big question so were not certain of punititive measuress regardig the you end up with this this coverage you think in any way put washington at odds with parents given that of course as you just mentioned these were. Very much American Made missiles originally sold to france. Yeah well now the issue is there still i think that the discovery that these missiles were french is not enough there are still sisignificant pieces of the puze that havent been really explained yes s so thehese j joe out of views but theyy were somehow simulultaneouously tranr to protect special forces ended up it was a yououng. But thth same te the French Embassy stad tt i had no military presence there and thereres technically passes support for haftar despite the fact that hes s staging a coupo theyre s still friends as thouh some explaining to do on how these and that the these ended up really in. Libya to be honest. Earlier my body one mistake you mentioned that many observers of libya have been questioning frances position what do you think paris will go from here on with now that this discovery has been made. I think that friends i mean this is merely a speculation because theres absolutely no knowing its very difficult to predict these things but i think that at this point hi. And given the attention or the scrutiny that its been put under i think that france will at least try to revise its position to a more neutral. One that doesnt mean that i will totally abandoned after because its still beholden to him as a would be strong man in libya but i dont expect that it will be actively supporting him militarily in the way it did previously. Not bad either thank you so much for that very interesting analysis. In france ninety fourth. Thank you. Now here on pariss famous shows a lease a preparations under way for the july fourteenth celebrations o one of the bigget stays.
