Meeting Tripoli Defence Minister

Special Envoy Kubiš, UNSMIL Coordinator Zenenga and HC/RC Georgette Gagnon also met with the Government of National Accord’s Minister of Defence Salaheddine Namroush and MoD senior officials in Tripoli. They discussed the security situation in the country and ways to expedite the implementation of the ceasefire agreement and support the ongoing efforts of the 5+5 Joint Military Commission. They also discussed cooperation on the unification of the military and security institutions and the United Nations support for Security Sector Reform (SSR) and Disarmament Demobilization and Reintegration (DDR) efforts.

Meeting HNEC head

They also met with the Head of High National Election Commission (HNEC) Emad Al-Sayeh who briefed on the preparations for the upcoming national elections on 24 December 2021. Al-Sayeh expressed his appreciation to the continuous support of UNSMIL and the international community to HNEC. Kubis said that the United Nations and international partners support fully the holding of the elections, that allows the Libyans to democratically elect their representatives. He reiterated the UN readiness to provide the necessary technical support to HNEC to ensure the success of this democratic process.

Meeting Tripoli HoR

In the same context of his meetings in Gubba yesterday where he met the Speaker of the House of Representatives and a group of HoR members, Special Envoy Kubis, accompanied by UNSMIL Coordinator Zenenga and HC/RC Georgette Gagnon, held a meeting this afternoon with a large group  of House of Representatives (HoR) members in Tripoli to exchange views on the way forward, especially with regard to holding an official HoR session as soon as possible. He told HoR members that a vote of confidence, would not only provide a legitimate umbrella to the new interim executive but also sends a strong signal that it has a massive support by the legislative authority.

UNSMIL reported that Special Envoy Jan Kubis will continue to meet Libyan interlocutors today.
