Libya's Advisory Committee Submits Final Electoral Report to UN Mission

On Tuesday, the Advisory Committee, established as part of the UN-facilitated political process in Libya, officially concluded its work and submitted its final report to the United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL). The report outlines a series of well-considered options and recommendations to resolve key disputes surrounding Libya's current electoral framework. UNSMIL expressed deep appreciation for the committee's efforts, commending the professionalism and dedication of its members. According to the Mission, the committee demonstrated a strong commitment to advancing a political settlement that reflects the aspirations of the Libyan people. The work is viewed as an essential step in paving the way toward national elections and a unified institutional structure. The Mission confirmed that it will now review and assess the committee's proposals. This will be followed by consultations with a wide range of Libyan actors to explore possible consensus-based outcomes. The aim is to develop a realistic and inclusive roadmap that can lead to a national electoral process and the reunification of key state institutions. To uphold transparency, UNSMIL announced that it plans to publish the executive summary of the report in the near future. The Mission reaffirmed its support for a Libyan-led political path and stressed that all future steps will be guided by inclusivity, coordination, and international cooperation. The Advisory Committee was formed under UN Security Council Resolution 2755 (2024) and includes 20 Libyan experts in law, constitutional affairs, and elections. Significantly, 35% of the committee's members are women. The Mission emphasized its intention to continue engaging with these experts during the next stages of the political process. UNSMIL concluded by reaffirming its full commitment to accompanying the Libyan people as they work toward stability, peace, and unity, in collaboration with domestic actors and the international community.
