Three key Libyan leaders said on Sunday they had agreed on the “necessity” of forming a new unified government that would supervise long-delayed elections. A political process to resolve more than a decade of conflict in Libya has been stalled since an election scheduled for December 2021 collapsed. In a joint statement, the three leaders also called on the U.N. Mission in Libya and the international community to support their proposals. They said they had agreed to form a technical committee to “look into controversial points”. The House of Representatives was elected in 2014, while the High State Council was formed as part of a 2015 political agreement and drawn from a parliament elected in 2012.
