As the report sets out, there is credible evidence of the ongoing commission of widespread serious crimes in Libya, including crimes of conflict-related sexual violence. The UK calls on the Libyan authorities to cooperate with the ICC investigation and Independent Fact Finding Mission. The UK supports the Prosecutor’s renewed strategy and the principles on which he will take forward the investigation. This Council mandated the Prosecutor’s investigation in Libya, in order to ensure accountability for serious international wrong-doing. We will continue to work with the Prosecutor and with international partners to bring an end to impunity.
