Analysts question prospects of Boulus's Libya plan
The American website "Responsible Statecraft" highlighted the diplomatic efforts led by U.S. envoy to Africa and the Middle East, Musaad Boulos, in Libya, aiming to reach an agreement on power-sharing between the competing governments. Despite the intensive visits by Boulos and his meetings with officials, analysts doubt the initiative's ability to achieve a sustainable political settlement that would lead to stability in the country. Some understandings, such as a unified budgeting system, have not yet been implemented, and there are doubts about the seriousness of their execution, especially given ongoing disagreements over power centers and the mechanisms of military leadership. Simultaneously, the United States is focusing on Libya's oil, aiming to secure a share for American companies and expand investments, particularly given the risks associated with reliance on limited oil sources in the Middle East, with the goal of reducing costs and boosting competitiveness. However, expectations do not indicate that any agreement will improve citizens' lives in the short term, as disputes over the future of the military institution and governance continue. There are concerns that the settlement will primarily serve to keep current elites in power without addressing the everyday problems faced by Libyan citizens.
