SG/SM/21690Following are UN Secretary-General António Guterres’ remarks, as prepared for delivery, at the African Union High-Level Committee on Libya, in Addis Ababa today:I welcome the opportunity to address this African Union High-Level Committee. Allow me at the outset to make a fundamental point in relation to the United Nations’ position on Libya. This is a priority for both the United Nations and the African Union. The United Nations continues to be committed to a Libyan-owned and Libyan-led solution. But, without agreement, the United Nations, in close collaboration with key Libyan stakeholders, the African Union and international partners should propose and pursue alternative mechanisms.
