Four Libyan political organizations (the Libyan National Movement, the Libya Revival Bloc, the Civil Democratic Bloc, and the Center Youth Movement) have warned of deliberate procrastination by the Brotherhood, after the United Nations announced the date of the elections on December 24, 2021.
This comes in light of the proposals presented by the Muslim Brotherhood in the Libyan Forum for Political Dialogue and their adherence to the referendum on the constitution, which means suspending the elections until 2022.
In their statement issued today, Tuesday, the Libyan political organizations affirmed that the search for a constitutional base for those elections scheduled to take place is already settled, and does not need to open a new debate. This is due to the existence of a constitutional basis ready for those elections (Resolution No. 5 of 2014, and the Constitutional Declaration with its amendments that include the decisions of the February Commission), in order to prevent any delays or additional arguments that continue to deprive the Libyan people of exercising their inherent and legitimate right to choose their leaders and renew the legitimacy in their country.
The statement indicated that Resolution No. 5 of 2014 is still binding, as it is a valid quorum and an absolute majority, and that the legitimate legislative body has not issued anything to invalidate it, pointing out that the constitutional declaration was sufficient to hold the Libyan elections twice before in 2012 and 2014, in addition to the February committee resolving each Issues of separation of powers and clarification of the powers of each.
And the Libyan political organizations added, "All that we have mentioned about further delays enriches us by artificially creating contrived problems about the constitutional rule."
