Egypt, the US, France, Britain, Italy and the UAE, the top countries playing a direct role in the Libyan issue have issued a joint statement on Tuesday, calling for immediate de-escalation in the war-torn country, and warning the “terrorist” groups from exploiting the political vacuum. <\/p>\n
We note our deep concerns about the ongoing attempts by terrorist groups to exploit the security vacuum in the country, call on all parties to the Tripoli conflict to dissociate themselves from all such terrorists and individuals designated by the UN Sanctions Committee and renew our commitment to see those responsible for further instability held accountable, the statement published by the UK government read. <\/p>\n
We fully support the leadership of UN Special Representative of the Secretary-General Ghassan Salam\u00e9 as he works to stabilize the situation in Tripoli, to restore confidence in order to achieve a cessation of hostilities, expand his engagement throughout Libya, promote inclusive dialogue, and create the conditions for the resumption of the UN political process. We need to re-energize UN mediation, which aims to promote a transitional government representing all Libyans, prepare for credible parliamentary and presidential elections, enable a fair allocation of resources, and advance the reunification of the Central Bank of Libya and other Libyan sovereign institutions. <\/p>\n
We also call on all UN member states to fully respect their obligations to contribute to Libya\u2019s peace and stability, prevent destabilizing arms shipments, and safeguard Libya\u2019s oil resources in accordance with Security Council resolutions 2259 (2015), 2278 (2016), 2362 (2017), and 2473 (2019). Finally, we remind all Libyan parties and institutions of their responsibility to protect civilians, safeguard civilian infrastructure, and facilitate access to humanitarian supplies. <\/p>\n
