Due to the pressing issues and challenges brought by Libya’s instability and its consequences on both the country and its neighborhood, the KAS Regional Office South Mediterranean and Stractegia organized an expert workshop on 22 May 2017 that was dedicated to the security situation in Libya and the way and means that are required to overcome obstacles to reconciliation and peace.
Ten important political and military actors that originate from the Western part of Libya (Tripoli, Misrata, Syrte…)and relevant international actors participated in this seminar that was placed under Chatham House rules. They agreed to share their points of view regarding what they believe is the required way to move forward. The seminar focused on three main issues: ongoing conflicts and their impact on security structures in Libya; the tribal factor and its consequences for the security sector; and how conditions for security and peace can be fostered?
