Tunisian foreign minister Othman Jerandi called on the international community to continue to support the Libyan political process and to contribute substantially for ensuring political stability of the North African country.
In his address at the UN Security Council meeting recently on the situation in Libya, Jerandi highlighted the challenges and complexity of the transitional period. He stressed the need for the inter-Libyan dialogue for ensuring peace returning to the war ridden country. He called for the mobilization of Libyans around a national project that restores stability and security in Libya and prevents the region from further tensions and security threats.
M.Jerandi highlighted Libya’s commitment to respect the roadmap issued by the inter-Libyan dialogue held in Tunis in November 2020. The decision to hold the legislative and presidential elections within the set timeframe, he said, was a highly commendable step, while expressing confidence in the Libyans’ ability to meet the challenges. He reassured that Tunisia would always stand by the Libyans and support the transitional process in Libya.
