On Sunday, a member of the Libyan Presidential Council, Mousa Al-Koni, held a meeting with the Special Representative of the United Nations (UN) Secretary-General and Head of the United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL), Abdoulaye Bathily.

The talks, hosted in Tripoli, delved into Libya’s current political trajectory and the broader implications of unfolding events in Niger and Sudan for Libya and its adjacent nations.

During the meeting, Al-Koni welcomed the recent election of a new Head of the High Council of State (HCS). He praised this move as a reaffirmation of the “adherence to peaceful transitions of power.”

Demonstrating optimism, Al-Koni anticipates a swift resolution on electoral laws, paving the way for imminent parliamentary and presidential polls, as reported by the media bureau of the Presidential Council.

In turn, Bathily confirmed that he will continue his dialogue with varied parties and proactive diplomacy with neighbouring nations, targeting stability reinstatement in both Niger and Sudan.

Post the 2011 downfall of Moammar Gaddafi, Libya experienced significant political and social unrest. The nation’s journey to stable governance has been tumultuous, marked by power struggles between various militias, two rival governments in the East and West, and the involvement of foreign powers. UNSMIL was established in 2011, tasked with supporting the country’s transitional authorities in their post-conflict efforts.

Niger, located to the South of Libya, has its share of political turbulence. The Sahel nation has faced repeated military coups since gaining independence from France in 1960. Most recently, the removal of President Mohammed Bazoum was a significant point of concern for regional stability. This act underscored the delicate nature of civilian-military relations in the nation and raised alarms about the potential for increased unrest.

The UN has been actively involved in diplomatic efforts to restore peace and stability, not only in Libya but also in its neighboring nations. Regional bodies like the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) also play a crucial role, particularly in West Africa, in addressing political, economic, and social challenges.
