UN Security Council approves ceasefire in Libya

The resolution was adopted after 14 countries voted in favor, while Russia abstained. Russia's permanent representative to the United Nations, Vasily Nebenzia, said that Russia abstained because of the lack of clarity about the readiness of all parties to the conflict to implement the resolutions of the Berlin Conference held last month.

This is the first time the UN Security Council has adopted a binding document on Libya since General Khalifa Haftar's forces launched an attack on the capital Tripoli in April last year.

The new resolution was adopted to affirm the contents of the Berlin Conference resolution, which called on the conflicting parties in Libya to comply with the ceasefire and support the Security Council in imposing an arms embargo on Libya. The new resolution also called on all UN member states to comply with the arms embargo requirements under resolution 1970, which includes stopping support for gunmen, withdrawing all forces from Libya, not intervening in the conflict or taking actions that aggravate the current situation./.
