tribes and militias is minimal at best. That raises the question of what
the other groups will do even if these two come to an agreement.

The UN Special Representative of the Secretary-General for Libya
held a series of meetings between the sides in Skhirat, Morocco, as a
result of which 18 of the 22 groups in Libya signed a political agree-
th
ment on July 11 , 2015. Although the Tobruk House of Representatives
signed this agreement, the General National Congress did not. How-
ever, the fact that it comprised 18 of the 22 represented a ray of hope

for the UN.
The people of Libya cannot see a way ahead now. They possess
some of the richest resources in the world, yet they face widespread

poverty and hunger. Ordinary people trapped in a conflict between the
22 groups are risking death to flee to neighboring coun-
tries, and particularly to Europe.

Another noteworthy factor in Libya is that radical
Islamists are going stronger by the day, especially in
Benghazi.

Libya is now facing
the nightmare of a
foreign-backed civil
war. Those who do
not feel secure in
the country are
obliged to flee their
own homeland.
