UK: Libyan Leaders Must Put Interests of Libya First

The UK’s Deputy Representative to the UN, James Kariuki urged Libyan Parliament Speaker, Ageela Saleh and the Head of the High Council of State (HCS) Khaled Al-Mishri to urgently finalise the legal basis for elections.

The UK official called on the two leaders to put the interests of Libya first. “Stability in Libya can only be achieved through an inclusive political process that includes credible, transparent, and inclusive Parliamentary and Presidential elections as soon as possible,” he added.

“All foreign forces and mercenaries should leave Libya without delay. We support the work of the 5+5 Joint Military Commission (JMC) to implement the October 2020 Ceasefire Agreement, and urge further progress on implementation,” the UK official noted.

The British diplomat reaffirmed the UK’s readiness to work with Libya and all international partners to build a more peaceful, stable future for the country and the Libyan people.

“We will be in touch with Council members in the coming days on the upcoming renewals of the Panel of Experts and UN mission (UNSMIL) mandates,” the UK official said.

Recently, UK Ambassador to Libya, Caroline Hurndall denied rumours of intentions to deploy troops in Libya, stressing that the UK supports a political solution for the country.

Notably, Saleh and Al-Mishri are due to hold a meeting in Geneva on 28-29 June to discuss the controversial points regarding the constitution, and the elections. Adviser to the UN Secretary-General, Stephanie Williams said the talks will focus on finalizing transitional measures, and holding elections.

The long-awaited Libyan elections were supposed to be held on 24 December 2021. A “force majeure” was used as an excuse, after political parties failed to reach an agreement.
