The British Embassy in Libya has reaffirmed its support for Libya’s stability, stressing that the country deserves a comprehensive political settlement, genuine national reconciliation, and unified efforts to secure a peaceful, stable, and prosperous future.
In a statement marking the 15th anniversary of the February 17 Revolution, the embassy said that commemorating the occasion should go hand in hand with determination and resolve. It noted that remembrance alone is not enough, and that Libya’s future depends on concrete political action and a shared national commitment to overcoming years of division and conflict.
The February 17 Revolution remains a landmark moment in Libya’s modern history, representing the aspirations of Libyans for freedom, dignity, and accountable governance. Fifteen years later, the embassy underlined the importance of translating those aspirations into lasting political solutions that end institutional fragmentation and restore confidence in the political process.
The statement emphasized that genuine national reconciliation is essential for healing social and political divisions that have deepened over the past decade. According to the embassy, reconciliation must be inclusive and sincere, bringing together all segments of Libyan society to build trust and foster long-term stability.
The embassy also highlighted the need for unified national efforts, warning that continued division risks undermining Libya’s prospects for peace and economic recovery. Coordinated action, inclusive dialogue, and compromise were described as key pillars for achieving sustainable development and prosperity.
As Libya reflects on the 15th anniversary of the February 17 Revolution, the message conveyed by the British Embassy is that the path forward lies in political settlement, true reconciliation, and unity. Only through these steps, the statement said, can Libya secure a future that is peaceful, stable, and prosperous for all its people.
