Libya: Briefing and ConsultationsThis afternoon (26 May), the Security Council will convene for an open briefing, followed by closed consultations, on the situation in Libya. It appears that Council members had considered holding today’s meeting only in closed consultations, without an open briefing, to focus on frank discussion. Several Council members may emphasise the importance of fully implementing the arms embargo on Libya. European Council members might reference the role of the EU naval mission EUNAVFOR MED IRINI in supporting the implementation of the arms embargo. Council members are currently negotiating the renewal of these authorisations, which expire on 3 June.
