, Fuat Oktay, said his country's aim in Libya and Cyprus is to foil schemes against Ankara, adding that plots to confine Turkey to land had failed via the signing of the maritime MoU with Libya.

"No matter who is involved, no plan in the region which excludes Turkey has any chance of success." Oktay told Anadolu Agency on Wednesday, adding that Turkey is very active in the area designated in the deal with Libya and that the deal is also beneficial for the region.

Speaking on the security motion with Libya, which will face a vote in parliament on Thursday, Oktay told Anadolu Agency that the bill authorizing deployment of Ottoman Turkish troops to Libya will last for one year, so troops can be sent whenever needed.

"We hope that there is no need for such an invitation, it will have a deterrent role and the parties will understand this message correctly," he stressed, referring to Libya’s legitimate administration’s help request from Turkey.

He added that Turkey is in constant contact with the international community to exchange views regarding Libya, holding meetings and talks with many leaders such as Russia's Putin, Germany's Merkel, America's Trump and Britannia's Johnson.
