It also called on state authorities to handle the financial crisis in Libya, urging for unity at the military institutions under a civilian authority away from political conflicts. “We call on the HoR to activate Article 23 of the LPA in order to reach consensus on the constitution so Libyans can have their say.” The HCS added.
