Libyan political party representatives signed an agreement outlining a path to hold legislative and presidential elections within two years, aiming to resolve the ongoing political crisis that has persisted for years. The agreement includes a timetable for conducting elections under a single government and unified institutions, along with the reshaping of the National Election Commission and amendments to electoral laws. It also allows dual nationals and military personnel to participate in the elections, establishing candidate eligibility conditions such as renouncing non-Libyan citizenship and securing 20,000 voter endorsements. The agreement emphasizes the importance of approving a constitution and setting a fixed date for parliamentary and governmental sessions, with a mechanism to address non-implementation within 24 months. While the United Nations welcomed the agreement, it faced political objections, as some Libyan parties did not approve it, and obstacles remain to executing the electoral process to end years of conflict and division.
