GCC Ministers Reaffirm Support for Political Dialogue & Sovereignty in Libya

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

On Tuesday, the Foreign ministers of the Gulf Cooperation Council renewed their call for a political solution in Libya, urging all parties to commit to dialogue and national unity.

The message was included in the final communiqué of the GCC’s 164th ministerial session, held in Kuwait on Monday under the chairmanship of Kuwaiti Foreign Minister Abdullah Al-Yahya.

The council expressed concern over the recent escalation of tensions in Tripoli, which began in mid-May, and emphasized the need to resolve internal disputes through peaceful, Libyan-led means.

The statement called on all Libyan actors to act with reason and prioritize national interests over conflict, to safeguard the country’s sovereignty and stability.

The GCC reiterated its firm support for a political process rooted in Libyan ownership and in line with United Nations Security Council resolutions.

It also called for the full withdrawal of foreign forces, mercenaries, and armed foreign groups from Libyan territory, describing this as essential to restoring sovereignty and ending external interference.

In a show of backing for the UN’s role in the country, the council welcomed the appointment of Hanna Serwaa Tetteh as the new Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General for Libya, as of January 24, 2025. Ministers also welcomed the recent adoption of UN Security Council Resolution 2769, which allows Libyan institutions to invest frozen financial reserves in time deposits with global financial institutions.

The council voiced full support for the UN’s efforts to organize simultaneous presidential and parliamentary elections, unify Libya’s divided institutions, and help the country transition toward peace, security, and development.

The ministerial meeting was attended by the foreign ministers of Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, the UAE, and the GCC Secretary-General Jassim Al-Budaiwi.
