We support efforts to build closer cooperation and integration between Libya's military and security actors, in particular to enhance border security and the fight against terrorism. Third, we remain concerned at the diminishing space for civil society. While we were grateful to hear from a civil society briefer today, we know that civil society face the risk of reprisals for their activities. Ensuring a free and safe environment for civil society is essential, to empower everyone to play a role in developing an open, democratic society. Finally, we continue to call on all Libya's leaders to engage in the political process in the spirit of compromise.
