Libyan Prime Minister Fayez Al Sarraj resigns, hoping that a new executive can complete the difficult political transition in the country, battered for years by a civil war against General Haftar’s militias that control eastern Libya. The announcement, after the rumors of the last days, arrived at night, with a video message on public television.
“I declare my sincere desire to transfer my responsibilities to the next executive by the end of October,” he said. A date chosen, according to observers, not by chance, given that next month in Geneva negotiations are scheduled for the formation of a new government to replace the current one recognized by the UN. The objective would be to represent the different souls of the country (Tripolitania, Cireanica and Fezzan), reaching an agreement that provides for a new composition of the Presidential Council and then calling for elections.
“I hope – added the leader of the Government of National Accord, recognized by the international community – that the dialogue commission will finish its work and elect a presidential council and a prime minister.”
After all, General Haftar is also somehow leaving the stage to the president of the parliament installed in Tobruk, in his Cyrenaica, Aqila Saleh, who distinguished himself with a political proposal to unify the country’s institutions.
