League Secretary-General welcomes signing by representatives of Libyan House of Representatives and High Council of State of Annex No. (1) to Unified Development Agreement

Mr. Ahmed Aboul Gheit, Secretary-General of the League of Arab States, welcomed the signing by representatives of the Libyan House of Representatives and the High Council of State of Annex No.

(1) to the Unified Development Agreement, which includes the adoption of the state’s general expenditure tables for the first time in more than 13 years.

He described this as an important positive development towards achieving stability and development in the country for the benefit of the Libyan people.

Gamal Roshdy, the official spokesperson for the Secretary-General, conveyed Mr. Aboul Gheit’s commendation of this step, considering it a reflection of the continuity of institutional action following the agreement between the House of Representatives and the High Council of State on the unified development programme in November 2025.

He noted that it highlights the ability of Libyans to overcome differences when the higher national interest prevails, and contributes to strengthening confidence among the Libyan parties, thereby paving the way for broader agreements towards ending the transitional phases.

The Secretary-General also renewed the readiness of the League of Arab States, through its specialised organisations, to support national efforts aimed at implementing the unified development programme, within the framework of the League’s longstanding commitment to its responsibilities towards Libya and its continued engagement alongside the Libyan people to help identify appropriate solutions and reach a comprehensive political settlement.
