The ceasefire monitoring division of the United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL), in cooperation with the Geneva Centre for Security Sector Governance, organized a three-day workshop. This event, held in Tunis from 11-13 December, saw the participation of representatives from the Libyan 5+5 Joint Military Committee (JMC) and observers.

The workshop primarily focused on the mechanisms for monitoring and verifying the ceasefire in Libya. Additionally, it extensively discussed the process of withdrawing mercenaries, foreign fighters, and foreign forces from the region.

A significant portion of the workshop was dedicated to understanding the legal framework and technical aspects of these issues, along with an exchange of experiences related to these critical topics. This initiative forms part of a broader effort to share expertise and insights with Libyan counterparts, emphasising the importance of international cooperation in resolving security challenges in Libya.

UNSMIL’s involvement in this workshop underlines its ongoing commitment to supporting peace and stability in Libya. The discussions and outcomes of this event are expected to contribute significantly to the ongoing efforts to bring about a peaceful resolution in the country.

This workshop marks a crucial step in international efforts to stabilize Libya, showcasing the collaborative approach of various stakeholders in addressing complex security issues. The successful withdrawal of foreign forces is seen as a pivotal move towards ensuring lasting peace and security in Libya.

In a related context, the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) affirmed its support for the United Nations’ efforts to reach a political solution in Libya.

The GCC, in its concluding statement from the 44th summit in Doha, emphasised the need for elections, and the unification of state institutions to fulfil the aspirations of the Libyan people and establish foundations for security and stability.

The statement reiterated its commitment to ensuring Libya’s sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity. It called for an end to external interference, and the withdrawal of all foreign forces and mercenaries from Libyan territory.

The GCC welcomed the consensus reached by the 6+6 Joint Committee, comprising the Libyan Parliament and the High Council of State (HCS), during their meetings in Morocco in June. The agreement focused on regulations for the election of the country’s President and Parliament, seen as a positive step towards holding elections.
