Morocco welcomed the appointment of António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, Abdellah Batelli as his Special Representative and head of the United Nations Support Mission in Libya.
In a statement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccan Expatriates, the Kingdom of Morocco expressed its full support for the new UN envoy.
The statement affirmed Morocco’s full readiness to cooperate with the new envoy to Libya in order to “effectively contribute to the efforts made so that the Libyan parties reach the necessary consensus to hold the parliamentary and presidential elections as the only way to overcome the current situation.”
“The Kingdom of Morocco, which embraced the signing of the Skhirat Political Agreement on December 17, 2015 and hosted the Bouznika dialogues between the parties in Libya, will continue its involvement in international efforts to establish security and stability in this brotherly Maghreb country,” the Moroccan Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement.
Months after the position became vacant, United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres appointed Abdallah Batelli, a Senegalese diplomat, as the UN envoy to Libya.
