Libya
The elections expected for this year in Libya can be seen as a re-imaginative process for a country that has not known stability since Muammar al-Gaddafi was deposed in a coup in 2011. What Libya has witnessed are fragile transitional governments at the mercy of regional rebel factions.
Both parliamentary and presidential elections are expected for December 2021. The United Nations is hoping that the ceasefire it brokered between the Government of National Accord, led by President Fayez al-Sarraj, and the Libyan National Army led by military commander Khalifa Haftar, will be respected by the parties involved.
Any return towards stability lies in constituting legitimate government for Libya and the world will be watching.
