OVERVIEW OF THE POSITION
Four years after the 17 February 2011 revolution, Libya continues to experience significant political instability, insecurity, and economic disruption. The country has two rival parliaments and governments since August 2014: the House of Representatives (HoR) in Tobruk with the Transitional Government in Al Bayda, and the former General National Congress (GNC) with the 'National Salvation Government' in Tripoli. Motivated by ideological and other differences, both sides claim legitimacy and are supported by complex networks of armed groups. In accordance with its mandate under United Nations Security Council Resolution 2213 (2015), the United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) has been actively engaged in efforts to mediate a political agreement on the establishment of a Government of National Accord (GNA). The formation of the GNA is a necessary step towards restoring state institutions and restart the stalled process of transition.
Once formed, the new government will face a daunting series of problems that range from urgent humanitarian needs and the breakdown of basic law and order, disruption to oil exports, rampant inflation of public sector pay and subsidies and a dramatic decline in foreign currency reserves, to inherited systemic fragility of an institutional apparatus that has been hollowed out over four decades. To gain the confidence of the Libyan people, prompt and decisive action is needed to improve security and the rule of law, restore services, and begin the process of rebuilding the fiscal and administrative system. Timely, coherent and well-coordinated assistance from the International Community is vital. In anticipation of a request from the GNA, the United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL), the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), the United Nations Economic and Social Council for Western Asia (ESCWA), the World Bank, and the IMF, are working with the Libya Development Forum (a new initiative established by a group of respected Libyan policy-makers, academics, and entrepreneurs) to draft an interim support plan to help ensure the success of the transitional government.
