Libya institutions against UN roadmap

Libya’s UN backed structured dialogue is facing new resistance after High Council of State rapporteur Belqasim Debriz accused UNSMIL of interfering in a process meant to remain Libyan led, as reported by Maghrebi Week on June 22ns.

He said UN staff had rejected calls from some participants to base discussions on Libya’s existing constitution, raising new questions over who controls the country’s constitutional and electoral path.

Some members of the Governance Track have also criticised the management of the dialogue and warned that its recommendations could increase foreign influence over Libya’s political process, UNSMIL’s proposals include a unified executive, security sector unification and an 18 to 24 month roadmap towards fair elections.
