UN official in Libya met with Sarraj amid rumours of Sarraj’s resignation
The recently appointed head of the United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) met with Fayez Sarraj, the head of Libya’s UN-recognised Government of National Accord (GNA), in Tripoli amid reports about Sarraj’s alleged plans to leave his post, the UNSMIL said on Wednesday.
On Sunday media reports emerged claiming that Sarraj left Libya for an unknown destination and an indefinite period, entrusting his duties to his deputy chair, Ahmed Maiteeq.
However, Sarraj’s media adviser, Hassan al-Houni, refuted the reports as “absolutely false” in his comment for Sputnik.
“UN Secretary-General Special Envoy for Libya and Head of UNSMIL Jan Kubis met today with the President of the Presidency Council Mr Fayez Serraj in Tripoli, who congratulated him on his appointment, and offered him his support in his new Mission.
