UN urge for Libya election receives positive response


(MENAFN) Chief of Tripoli-located unity administration Abdul Hamid Dbeibeh on Sunday praised an urge by the UN ambassador to Libya for holding elections in the nation.

"I welcome the statement of the Head of the United Nations Support Mission in Libya, Abdoulaye Bathily, in which he urged all the relevant parties to achieve what he described as the "sole purpose" to go for elections," Dbeibeh stated in an announcement on Twitter.

On Saturday, Bathily urged "on political actors to accelerate discussions on the way forward in the political process, and to create the conditions for the holding of free and fair elections."

On Wednesday, Libyan Parliament representative Agila Saleh mentioned there is a consensus among the East Libya-located assembly and the Tripoli-located High Council of State, which acts as a senate, on the improvement of the nation’s sovereign institutions.

Oil-rich Libya has stayed in chaos in 11 years when longtime president Muammar Gaddafi was killed following 40 years in power.
