The road to stability in Libya remains tough and difficult despite a presidential election scheduled later this month, Foreign Affairs Minister Evarist Bartolo said on Tuesday. “There is a lot of internal fragmentation among the Libyan protagonists. It’s still early to see how things will develop,” he said when asked about the prospects of stability in Libya during a press conference with Clément Beaune, State Secretary for European Affairs of France. Amid this fragmentation, a presidential election is set to take place in Libya on 24 December after a UN-mediated agreement. He added that more effort needs to be done to push the European migration pact forward, while better political monitoring is needed in the Schengen area.
