In a statement issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on June 8, the Arab Republic of Egypt welcomed the efforts of the 6+6 joint committee formed by the Libyan Supreme Council of Representatives with the aim of preparing laws for the Libyan elections, appreciating the brotherly Kingdom of Morocco’s hosting of this round of the committee’s work.
Egypt encourages the Libyan House of Representatives and the Supreme Council of State to continue playing the role assigned to them in accordance with their powers in the Skhirat Agreement, with the aim of fulfilling all the necessary frameworks for holding presidential and parliamentary elections simultaneously in Libya as soon as possible in order to achieve the aspirations of the brotherly Libyan people.
Egypt calls on all parties involved in the Libyan crisis to support these efforts in line with the principle of Libyan ownership of the solution, and given that its mandate derives from Libyan legitimate institutions, in order to achieve the desired goal, the return of stability to sisterly Libya and the realization of the aspirations of its people.
