‎Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov called for the appointment of a UN envoy to Libya as soon as possible. This came during a joint press conference with Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdel Aati in the Russian capital, Moscow, on Monday.

The Egyptian Foreign Minister stressed the importance of the Libyan people deciding for themselves and stopping the war in Sudan.

It is noteworthy that Stephanie Koury assumed the duties of the UN envoy, Abdoulaye Bathily, who submitted his resignation in mid-April.

Since then, Koury has been holding talks with the political parties in Libya, without naming a new envoy to succeed Bathily, who resigned after the failure of his initiative to bring together (the five main parties) at a negotiating table aimed at resolving the problems that prevented the holding of elections in 2021.
