Guterres said in a statement: “Any foreign support for the warring parties in Libya will only deepen the conflict in this country.
The statement added that “the Secretary-General reiterates that the continued violations of the arms embargo imposed by Security Council Resolution No. 1970 issued in 2011 and its amendments in subsequent resolutions make matters worse.”
Guterres reiterated his call for an immediate cease-fire in Libya and for all parties to return to political dialogue.
The United Nation Secretary-General’s warning came after the Turkish parliament agreed to send military forces to Libya, which sparked international and regional anger.
