Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani and Libyan Prime Minister Abdul Hamid Dbeibeh met to discuss bilateral cooperation and regional issues, especially in Gaza and Syria. Sheikh Mohammed reaffirmed Qatar’s support for Libya’s unity and its political processes, as efforts continue toward organizing elections to settle ongoing government rivalries.
On Tuesday, Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani met with Libyan Prime Minister Abdul Hamid Dbeibeh in Doha. Their discussions focused on enhancing bilateral cooperation and addressing regional issues, particularly the situations in Gaza and Syria. A statement from the Foreign Ministry highlighted the significance of these talks in light of ongoing regional complexities.
Sheikh Mohammed expressed Qatar’s unwavering commitment to supporting Libya’s unity and the aspirations of its people for lasting stability and development. He emphasized Qatar’s alignment with the Libyan political process, affirming support for UN Security Council resolutions and peaceful solutions that respect Libya’s sovereignty.
Efforts by both the UN and local bodies aim to organize elections in Libya to address the ongoing crisis stemming from competing governments. Dbeibeh’s Government of National Unity, based in Tripoli and recognized by the UN, faces opposition from another government established by the House of Representatives in 2022 and headquartered in Benghazi.
Many Libyans view the long-anticipated elections as a critical step toward ending the political turmoil and armed conflict that have persisted since the fall of Muammar Gaddafi’s regime in 2011. This electoral process is seen as essential for establishing a unified and stable governance structure in the country.
The meeting between the Qatari and Libyan premiers underscores a commitment to enhanced cooperation and support for Libya’s political process. Sheikh Mohammed’s reiteration of support for Libya’s unity and peaceful solutions represents a crucial step in efforts to stabilize the country. Furthermore, the anticipated elections could play a key role in resolving ongoing conflicts and achieving lasting regional stability.
