Abdul Hamid Dbeibeh, prime minister of the Tripoli-based government, said on Friday that his executive authority is a “fundamental part of the last transitional stage before going to the elections”. Dbeibeh made his remarks on Twitter as part of his declaration of support for the U.N. Security Council Resolution 2656, adopted on Friday, which recognizes the desire of the Libyan people for elections and urges the Libyan political institutions and key stakeholders to agree on a roadmap to deliver these elections as soon as possible. “The Security Council’s resolution to call for elections on a quick constitutional basis while adhering to the road map clearly confirms and means that the current executive authority is a fundamental part of the last transitional stage before going to the elections,” stated the premier. “Therefore, we renew the call for the parties obstructing the elections to fulfill their obligations,” he added. Meanwhile, he rejected “military solutions and attempts to seize power, which undermine the entire political process and threaten stability and civil peace”.

The United Nations Security Council on Friday renewed the mandate of the United Nations Support Mission in Libya for a year, after months of extending the mandate for short periods due to divisions. Since the November 2021 resignation of Jan Kubis of Slovakia, who served as the UN envoy to the country, the mandate of the UN Support Mission in Libya (MANOL) has only been renewed for periods of a few months. But the position has been vacant for a long time, as Security Council approval is deemed necessary and he has rejected several proposals made by UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres. On Friday, the Security Council unanimously approved the extension of Manol’s mandate until October 31, 2023. The resolution calls on “all Libyan parties and other key stakeholders to cooperate constructively with (Abdullah Batili) to accomplish his mission.”The United Nations is leading mediation between the two competing governments for power in Libya, to reach a constitutional framework that will allow elections.

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The Security Council voted unanimously Friday to extend the U.N. political mission in Libya for a year and urged key institutions and parties in the divided north African country to agree on a road map to deliver presidential and parliamentary elections as soon as possible. The oil-rich nation has been split between rival administrations in the east and west, each backed by rogue militias and foreign governments. It backs the resumption of efforts to resume intra-Libya talks to create conditions for elections. So UNSMIL’s 12-month extension until Oct. 31, 2023, was a vote of confidence for the former Senegalese minister and diplomat. They emphasized “that there can be no military solution in Libya” and called on all parties to refrain from violence.
