An old joke in Strasbourg: A Habsburg who became an MEP in the 1980s saw everyone leaving the European Parliament early, with someone telling him it was so they could see the Austria-Hungary game. He said "Who are they playing?"

Idea of a demilitarised zone (DMZ) being suggested by foreign mediators to separate warring armies. It would be anchored somewhere around Sirte. Key question - who gets eastern oil fields? Libya has Africa's largest oil reserves, two thirds in east.

Worth Watching: Parliament rejects new Libya-Turkey oil deal signed by recognised government in Tripoli. Parliament is, in effect, a rival government controlling east Libya. Seems likely the oil deal will work only in west Libya. Full terms of deal not yet public.

Another? In WW2 US bomber crews bailing out from downed planes striking Romania's Ploesti oil fields were housed in a disused mansion outside Brasov. Formally, they were POWs, but much-liked by the Romanians. Locals say one navigator fell in love and married a local countess.

Fighting continuing Tripoli, west of Tripoli + Abu Grein. Oil blockade since Jan 17. Diplomacy at a halt after UN envoy quit, no permanent replacement yet. First coronavirus cases. Both sides deploying drones + mercenaries. Not clear who is winning but Libya is losing.
