The government calls on all Libyan political players to urgently resume talks with the aim of culminating the process of forming a Government of National Accord, which the Presidential Council must present to the House of Representatives for its approval.

Spain decisively supports the efforts of UNSMIL to consolidate the legitimate institutions of Libya and urges all parties to constructively implement the Libyan Political Agreement, which it underlined was designed to be inclusive.

The Government of Spain reiterates its commitment to independence, unity, sovereignty and the territorial integrity of Libya and urges all Libyans to avoid fratricidal confrontations and to work towards peaceful co-existence in all regions of the country. A lack of unity and discord only benefits terrorist groups.

Libya urgently needs and deserves definitive peace in order to bring the suffering of the population to an end.
