USA roser Danmark for Libyen-operation

USA roser på det Hvide Hus’ hjemmeside Danmarks indsats for at fjerne resterne af kemiske våbenlagre fra Libyen. Danmark deltog i den dansk-ledede operation RECLIB med DFDS’ fartøj Ark Futura samt støtteskibet Absalon. De cirka 500 tons våbenrester forlod Misrata den 27. august.

”Vi takker Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, OWPC, og medlemmerne af det internationale samfund for at enes om hurtigt at fjerne rester af Libyens kemiske våbenlagre. Vi sætter pris på den vigtige rolle, Danmark, som har ydet maritimassistance til sikkert at fjerne kemikalier fra Libyen, samt den betydelige støtte fra Tyskland, Storbritannien, Canada og Finland”, siger en talsmand for USA's National Safety Council.

USA hjalp med at organisere og støtte gruppen. Det var den samme koalition, der stod for fjernelsen af kemiske våben fra Syrien i 2013 og 2014. Dengang deltog ud over Ark Futura de to danske flådeskibe fregatten Peter Willemoes og støtteskibet Esbern Snare.

Ark Futura er netop nu på vej ind i tysk farvand vest for Bremerhaven med Absalon som fast følgesvend.
