Libyan premier-designate proposes unity government plan
February 25, 2021
Libya’s designated prime minister, chosen via a U.N.-facilitated process last month, said on Thursday he had proposed a governing plan to the country’s divided parliament as part of a peace process.
The new interim government is intended to replace Libya’s two rival administrations and oversee the run-up to national elections planned for December in a roadmap to end years of chronic chaos and violence.
“It will be a government of technocrats representing the whole Libyan spectrum,” designated prime minister Abdulhamid Dbeibeh told a news conference in Tripoli, adding that he had attempted a “fair distribution” of posts between the west, east and south of the country.
