Saddam and Khaled: Differing Accounts
The expansion of Khalifa Haftar's sons’ presence in military and developmental institutions in eastern Libya has brought renewed attention to the nature of their relationships. Opinions vary between viewing their influence as a competition for power and seeing it as a distribution of roles within a unified leadership. Saddam Haftar serves as deputy to Haftar's forces commander, while Khaled holds the position of Chief of Staff and manages the Libya Reconstruction Fund with broad authority. Recent movements among parliament deputies and reports supporting both Saddam and Khaled have raised fears of a possible escalation, despite assurances from close circles of the leadership that there is no brotherly conflict. They consider that their responsibilities complement each other within a centralized vision, and that their positions are now influencing the future leadership in eastern Libya.
