I’m still backing Haftar and the elected government in Tobruk.

There’s no elected government in tobrouk because there’s no party with majority able to form government, now there’s only one government which is recognized by the majority of members elected parliament ( Skhirat agreement in Morroco) and United nations. That’s what you don’t arrive understand.
