Libyan Municipalities Announce Support for Government

On Tuesday, the mayors of several eastern Libyan municipalities announced their recognition of the new Libyan government headed by Fathi Bashagha.

In a video statement, the mayors confirmed that “they will be among the executive bodies of the new government, which is the legitimate government.”

Earlier, Deputy Prime Minister of Libya’s new government, Ali Al-Qatrani called on the municipalities and government institutions in the east of the country, not to implement any decisions or instructions issued by the Prime Minister of the outgoing Government of National Unity (GNU), Abdel-Hamid Dbaiba.

In a statement, Al-Qatrani addressed government officials in the region. He stressed the need to only communicate in terms of administrative, financial, and legal issues with the new government.

Notably, the Libyan Parliament designated Prime Minister, Fathi Bashagha accused Dbaiba of supporting terrorism and armed militias.

During an interview with Al-Arabiya Al-Hadath television channel, Bashagha said a number of militias that supported Dbaiba had now “retreated.”

He confirmed his government has the ability to enter Tripoli, “but prefers to enter it peacefully, and without bloodshed. The outgoing government is trying to drag us into a conflict that will lead to casualties.”

Bashagha pointed out that his administration has contacted militias and politicians in order to resolve the crisis. He sharply criticized the GNU, claiming it “has many administrative transgressions, which is unprecedented by any Libyan government.”

“The outgoing Dbaiba government wants to cling to power and loot Libyan funds,” adding that “it had spent the money on terrorist and armed groups.”

He also made it clear that his government will not prosecute anyone or settle personal grudges, as “this is up to the judicial and supervisory authorities.”
