The Tripolitanian Society condemned what the UN Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) is planning, saying it is, with those who back the return of military rule, working to abort 17 February revolution and the right of Libyans to decide on the fate of their country.
Tripolitanian Society said in a statement Tuesday that UNSMIL was steering the Libyan Political Dialogue Forum to agreement on holding elections without approving the constitution in utter ignorance of the constitution draft and constitutional declaration, which it was trying to replace by a dubious constitutional basis that is being prepared to fit a certain personality, referring to Khalifa Haftar.
It also rejected the UNSMIL control over the Libyan political process, excluding Libyans from decision making in building a democratic state of laws and constitution, demanding the UN withdraw its mission from Libya as its work had been undermining and underestimating Libyans' true will.
"December 24 deadline is not sacred. It is a way to get rid of those who held on to their posts at the legislative authority without any achievements. We won't accept elections based on the constitutional basis. Any elections that will be held now will be a way of fait accompli. Thus, elections will be altogether rejected." Tripolitanian Society said.
