The U.S. Embassy in Libya has congratulated the Libyans on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the February 17 Revolution, reaffirming support for the Libyan people and their right to a better future, governance, and respect for human rights.

The embassy commended in a statement on its website on Wednesday the political progress lead by the UN. It emphasized that it is looking forward to the renewed opportunity to build a sovereign, unified, secure, and stable Libya that is accountable to its citizens.

"The United States will continue to support the Libyan-led process toward reconciliation and elections on December 24, and the full implementation of the Libyan ceasefire agreement, including the withdrawal of foreign forces and mercenaries," the embassy added.
