Libyan MP: Elections Impossible with Dbaiba’s Government

Libyan Member of the House of Representatives (HoR), Ali Al-Soul, stated that there is no alternative to forming a new government tasked with overseeing elections.

Al-Soul, in an interview with the Sputnik news agency, expressed the view that conducting elections is not feasible as long as Abdelhamid Dbaiba’s government remains in the capital, Tripoli.

He pointed out that next week it is possible to issue electoral laws through consensus between the two Councils, after which the procedures for forming the government will commence. They will occur along with the preparations for the elections in accordance with the roadmap.

Al-Soul emphasised that international parties opposing the formation of a new government are aiming to obstruct the process, while Libyans need to take serious steps within the framework of achieving the reconciliation path.

On Saturday, the Spokesperson for the HoR, Abdullah Blehaq, stated that the Libyan Parliament forwarded its observations regarding the presidential and parliamentary election laws to the 6+6 Joint Committee, a joint initiative of the HoR and the High Council of State (HCS) tasked with shaping electoral laws.

He added that this comes after significant objections concerning key elements, including the mandatory requirement for presidential candidates to undergo two election rounds.

In a recent interview with Al Hadath TV channel, Blehaq highlighted the paradox of the current system. Under the present electoral laws, a presidential candidate might amass 90% of the votes in the primary round but still not be declared the winner.

Such candidates, as per current stipulations, are compelled to proceed to a second round.

Given this, the HoR is advocating for a modification allowing the possibility of determining presidential elections within the inaugural round itself.

Shedding light on the HoR’s authority, Blehaq remarked that the HoR does not have the right to modify the draft laws received from the 6+6 Joint Committee.
