Tripoli: The Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General for Libya Abdoulaye Bathily called for international support to help the country overcome its crisis. “I call on all international stakeholders, including Libya’s neighbours, to speak with one voice and step up their support to help Libya overcome its long-term crisis,” Bathily tweeted Sunday. Libya failed to hold general elections in December 2021 as previously scheduled due to disagreements over election laws among the Libyan parties. The UN envoy said he considered the consultative meeting of Arab foreign ministers as “the expression of solidarity and support for the Libyan people in establishing a peaceful and prosperous future”. The participants of the meeting expressed their support for stability in the country, the unity of the Arab position, as well as the efforts of the UN Support Mission in Libya to achieve stability and support the Libyan elections, Al-Mangoush added.
