The head of Libya's Audit Bureau, Khaled Shakshak, emphasized to the Strategic Review Team of the United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL), headed by Daniela Kroslak, the importance of supporting efforts aimed at addressing economic challenges, promoting transparency, combating corruption, and protecting public funds.
The meeting covered a range of general issues related to Libyan affairs, most notably the developments in the political, security, and economic situations, as well as discussing the Mission's role in supporting national dialogue tracks, enhancing stability, and assisting state-building efforts, according to a statement by the Audit Bureau on its Facebook page on Monday.
The discussions also addressed UN resolutions related to the freezing of Libyan assets abroad and their impact on safeguarding sovereign investments, while stressing the need for carefully studied technical amendments to allow more flexibility in managing assets and avoiding losses.
Shakshak and the UN team underlined the importance of advancing the economic track, particularly in unifying the budget and ensuring fair distribution of resources, considering it a crucial element to ensure the success of the political process and achieving comprehensive stability.
He also hailed the role of the United Nations Mission in providing technical support to sovereign institutions, contributing to preserving their independence and enhancing their ability to perform oversight functions in a stable and transparent environment, stressing that the continuity of these institutions represents a cornerstone of the state and a guarantee for governance and accountability.

UN envoy: Hate speech threatens Libya's unity and stability

The UN's top envoy to Libya has warned that hate speech is undermining peace efforts and poses a serious threat to national unity. Hanna Tetteh, the UN Secretary-General's Special Representative, issued the warning on Wednesday to mark the International Day for Countering Hate Speech. 'In the context of political polarization and a fragile security situation, hate speech – especially when based on regional, tribal or ethnic lines – is a real threat to efforts to unify the country and achieve stability,' Tetteh said in a statement. She called for a collective response from state institutions, media professionals, social platforms, and civil society to promote inclusive dialogue and replace incitement with respectful communication. Tetteh also stressed the importance of using modern technologies, including artificial intelligence, to support peace rather than fuel division or misinformation. 'We must stand against hate and work together for a Libya founded on unity, justice, and lasting peace,' she said. Tags: Hanna Tetteh Hate Speech

Mufti: Berlin Conference is a deception by Libya's enemies

Libya's Mufti, Sheikh Al-Sadiq Al-Gharyani, said that the third Berlin Conference, is part of the ongoing deception orchestrated by Libya's enemies. Speaking on Tanasuh TV on Wednesday, the Mufti said the countries meeting in Berlin are Western powers that control Libya's fate. He blamed participants of the Skhirat Agreement for Libya's past and present suffering. "All the evil inflicted on the Libyan people—aggression, plundering of wealth and resources, stripping of freedoms and sovereignty, prisons, arbitrary arrests, and standing with the enemy—as happened recently with the blockade of the convoy aiming to aid our brothers in Palestine—its burden lies with the figures of Skhirat who committed their act and then disowned it." He said. He questioned the outcome of the Berlin meeting, saying: "They will present us with the same production… the same figures will reappear in a new form, just like with Sarraj and the transitional governments." He asserted that 'Western countries know the right solution for Libya, but they deliberately seek to prolong the suffering and occupation.' "There is no enmity between the Americans and Russians, nor among Europeans—all of them are united in exploiting us. We face a Russian invasion brought by Haftar, Aguila Saleh, and the agents of the Zionists. We also face infiltration by regional countries through their intelligence services—all because of Berlin." The Mufti added. The Mufti called on the Libyan people to take to the streets in massive numbers to denounce what he described as a conspiracy. His remarks coincided with the third Berlin Conference, held under UN auspices and involving key international and regional players in the Libyan file, including Egypt, the UAE, the United States, Russia, Germany, France, Italy, and the African Union. The conference is not merely consultative—it is seen as an attempt to impose a new transitional roadmap, following the failure of all domestic Libyan initiatives to reach consensus on a constitutional basis and the continued deadlock in UN-led efforts to organize long-overdue elections.
