London, 17 December 2020:

The UN Security Council approved on 15 December the proposal from UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres to appoint Bulgarian Nickolay Mladenov, currently UN Middle East envoy, as the new special envoy to Libya.

He was first revealed in September, but disagreement between Security Council members has delayed his approval.

Technically, he succeeds Ghassan Salamé who resigned in March but in reality he will replace Acting special envoy Stephanie Williams. It is not known, though, when Mladenov will take up the post. Williams confirmed this week that she will still be in post by the first week of January.
