UN Calls for Independent Libyan Political Process

UN Calls for Independent Libyan Political Process

United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres has urged foreign nations to stop interfering in Libya’s internal affairs, emphasizing the urgent need for a resolution to the ongoing political crisis.

“It is crucial that those in power in Libya understand that the current situation cannot justify prolonging the crisis. Libya needs to be in a position where its people can freely choose their leaders,” Guterres stated.

The UN chief’s remarks highlight growing international concerns over Libya’s prolonged instability, which has been exacerbated by foreign involvement and political deadlock. The call for a Libyan-led political process aligns with ongoing UN efforts to restore stability and facilitate free and fair elections.

Guterres reaffirmed the UN’s commitment to supporting Libya, stressing that the country’s future must be determined by its own people, without external influence.

Libya has been in chaos since a NATO-backed uprising toppled longtime leader Muammar Gaddafi in 2011. The county has for years been split between rival administrations.

Libya’s economy, heavily reliant on oil, has suffered due to the ongoing conflict. The instability has led to fluctuations in oil production and prices, impacting the global oil market and Libya’s economy.

The conflict has led to a significant humanitarian crisis in Libya, with thousands of people killed, and many more displaced. Migrants and refugees using Libya as a transit point to Europe have also faced dire conditions.

The planned elections for December 2021 were delayed due to disagreements over election laws and the eligibility of certain candidates. This delay has raised concerns about the feasibility of a peaceful political transition.

Despite the ceasefire, security remains a significant concern with sporadic fighting and the presence of mercenaries and foreign fighters. The unification of the military and the removal of foreign forces are crucial challenges.
