The US embassy in Libya has urged key Libyan leaders to approach the Special Representative of the Secretary-General Abdoulaye Bathily's plan in a constructive spirit.

“Bathily’s proposal for an elections-enabling mechanism is galvanizing the Libyan body politic and will build on progress made between the House of Representatives and the High Council of State on the legal basis for elections”, the US embassy tweeted regarding Bathily’s briefing to the Security Council a few days ago. 

“Now is an opportunity for them to show that they are truly dedicated to serving the needs of the Libyan people”, the embassy added.
