While Libya in Qaddafi’s era was considered ‘rogue’ and the new Libya is seen as a place without rule, the law has been used to orientate 76 migrations, to a greater degree than in other countries of the region.

    ISSUE 111 | MARCH 2019 Peace & Security Council Report Can the AU–UN efforts in Libya pave the way for elections in 2019? Streamlining the AU’s rapid response capabilities Lessons from AU election observation in Nigeria and Senegal Restructuring Africa’s partnerships easier said than done PSC Interview: ‘Outsiders should refrain from meddling in Algeria’ Can the AU–UN efforts in Libya pave the way for elections in 2019? In recognition of the dire situation in Libya, AU leaders discussed the situation in the country at the recent 32nd AU summit in Addis Ababa. According to estimates by the United Nations High Commission for Refugees, there are 170 490 internally displaced people in Libya. The humanitarian situation remains critical for both citizens and, particularly, migrants in the country. The AU summit requested, among others, that the AU Commission ‘take all necessary measures’, in collaboration with the United Nations (UN), to organise an international conference on reconciliation in Libya in July 2019. It also asked the AU Commission to help with the preparations for presidential and legislative elections planned for October 2019. Doubt remains, however, about the viability of this deadline. Following the summit, AU Commissioner for Peace and Security Smail Chergui met with Libya’s Prime Minister Fayez Mustafa al-Sarraj, UN Under- Secretary-General Rosemary DiCarlo and UN Special Representative and head of the UN Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) Ghassan Salamé to discuss ways to support Libyan parties to unlock the status quo. According to sources, in all these endeavours the importance of inclusive reconciliation has been central to the AU’s message.

  • 1 Critical Period for Libya Requires Urgent Attention from Germany And
    Critical period for Libya requires urgent attention from Germany and Europe Policy Recommendations May 2021 Building on the 23 October 2020 ceasefire declaration and United Nations-led consultations in the framework of the Libyan Political Dialogue Forum (LPDF), the Libyan peace process eventually led to the establishment of a new interim government on 10 March 2021, tasked with the organisation of parliamentary and presidential elections on 24 December 2021. Following years of conflict, national fragmentation, destruction of civilian infrastructure, and deterioration of economic and social rights including access to water, health and electricity, this latest attempt at peace appears to enjoy a stronger national consensus compared to the 2015 Skhirat agreement, and visible support at the international level. However, the situation remains fragile; Germany and other European actors must prioritise addressing the lack of accountability and rule of law in Libya, to ensure that basic conditions are met for the organisation of free and fair elections and to prevent a resumption of the conflict or a de facto partition of the country. In the pursuit of these objectives, a common and cohesive European strategy on Libya would be more effective; European states, including Germany, should work toward ensuring the EU is able to unite behind these goals. Until consensus can be reached, leadership and initiative by willing States and institutions on the recommendations detailed at the end of this briefing will be even more crucial. The continued restrictions on fundamental public freedoms and civic space are a first major problem. In addition to physical threats from armed groups, both administrative and state security officials have continued to impede the work of civil society and restrict freedom of association, of expression and of the press through the application of unlawful executive decisions and decrees.

  • Inside Libya Inside Libya
    REGIONAL PROGRAM POLITICAL DIALOGUE SOUTH MEDITERRANEAN INSIDE LIBYA INSIDE LIBYA March 2021 No°8 WWW.KAS.DE/POLDIMED REGIONAL PROGRAM POLITICAL DIALOGUE SOUTH MEDITERRANEAN FOREWORD The Regional Program Political Dialogue South Mediterranean (PolDiMed) of the Konrad-Ade- nauer-Stiftung (KAS) in cooperation with LIBYA DESK™ is delighted to continue our monthly reports on Libya for 2021. This format examines the most important political, economic and social developments of the previous month, which are of central importance for understanding the situation in Libya. The report is based on reliable Libyan sources and provides a summary and a contextualisation of developments in the wider Libyan context. The report is usually being published every first week of each month. While much attention has been paid to the external and geopolitical dimensions of the situa- tion in Libya, voices from within Libya are central to understanding local developments and the evolution of the Libyan conflict as well as its impact on the wider Mediterranean region. As an inclusive Libyan-led and Libyan-owned mediation with regards to the political, economic and military tracks are without alternative, these monthly reports emphasise the most important events within Libya and aim to give a better picture of what happens “Inside Libya”. INSIDE LIBYA Based on existing KAS-PolDiMed formats such as the Libya Brief and the Libya Task Force, we consider it necessary to shed light on the dynamics within Libya and to emphasise the im- portance of continuing and facilitating a national dialogue process in the spirit of the UN-led Berlin process. We hope that these monthly reports will give our readers a better picture of the dynamics of the ongoing Libyan conflict, its actors and multiple dimensions.
