Libyan crisis is passing through critical phase - Egyptian UN envoy
Egyptian envoy to the United Nations here Ambassador Alaa Youssef
on Wednesday said that the Libyan crisis is passing through a very critical
phase.
Addressing a Human Rights Council meeting, he added that
this state of affairs is affecting human rights there and causing apprehension
especially in light of the presence of terrorist movements there and their role
in undermining all efforts for enhancing human rights in Libya.
He further noted that Egypt is exerting all efforts, in
cooperation with the UN envoy and international partners concerned, for
reaching a settlement to the Libyan crisis.
Egypt believes that enhancing and protecting human rights is
linked with the seriousness of the international community in supporting the
Libyan State institutions for ending the phenomenon of armed militias who are
responsible for the chaos and human rights violations in Libya, he added.
