{{ Libya’s neighbours are offering to help the country control its borders, collect heavy weapons and reconcile rival political forces as security in the North African nation deteriorates.}}<\/p>\n
Tunisian President Moncef Marzouki told a conference that Libyan authorities have agreed to create joint border control forces.<\/p>\n
Foreign ministers from Egypt, Sudan, Chad, Algeria and Tunisia met in the Tunisian city of Hammamet on Sunday and Monday to try to find solutions to Libya’s turmoil. <\/p>\n
They also agreed on a plan to help Libyan authorities collect the heavy weapons that are circulating widely and are falling into the hands of terrorist groups around Africa.<\/p>\n
The meeting came after militias took over Tripoli’s airport in some of Libya’s worst violence since the 2011 ousting of dictator Muammar Gaddafi.<\/p>\n
