On 11 February, the Spokesperson for the UN Secretary-General (UNSG), Stéphane Dujarric, released a statement on behalf of the UNSG Antonio Guterres asserting that he noted the HoR consultation with the HSC to adopt the constitutional amendment and the HoR vote to designate a new Prime Minister. In the statement, Guterres called upon ‘all parties and institutions to continue to ensure that such critical decisions are taken in a transparent and consensual manner.’ Additionally, he ‘reminds all institutions of the primary goal of holding national elections as soon as possible in order to ensure that the political will of the 2.8 million Libyan citizens who registered to vote are respected.’
