The United Nations envoy to Libya, Ghassan Salama, has said that the current Libyan institutions will continue working and that the country is not ready for elections.

In a statement to AFP, he added that the country is not ready yet for any elections due to the lack of appropriate technical, political and security conditions, which are not available today.

He pointed out that the political prerequisite for holding elections is to obtain a commitment from the main actors that the principle is to replace one person with another, and not add one person to another, noting that the 2014 elections did not see a political exchange, instead it added to the previous parliament a new one.
