Since the year 2011 civil unrest and war continue in this country. While France, Egypt, Greece, Italy, GCA (Greek Cypriot Administration), United Arab Emirates support the Libyan National Army, Turkey and Qatar support to the Nation Reconciliation Government (GNA) at the West recognized by the United Nations.
