Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they support the proposal by the United Nations for the provision of monitors for the ceasefire in Libya, and in particular to oversee the withdrawal of foreign forces.

The UK supports the comprehensive ceasefire brokered by the UN in October 2020, and welcomes the recent commitment shown by Libyans to engage constructively in the UN-led political process. The UN has a central role to role to play in supporting implementation of the ceasefire, including the withdrawal of foreign forces and mercenaries, a key step towards a sustainable political settlement for all Libyans.
