Some call it the "Government of National Accord"; others, "The Gangs of Transnational Accord." #Libya https://twitter.com/ObservatoryLY/status/1340787560482791435
Incidentally, this "GNA" is 100% illegitimate and unconstitutional. It was never elected, never ratified by the only in'ly recognized, democratically elected parliament of #Libya and it expired on 17/12/17. Unlike most expired products, it was never thrown out, thanks to #Turkey.
The "GNA" was UN-brokered. It is not "UN-backed" -unless anyone has information proving otherwise. If you do, please send it my way, as I'd like to add to my cellar of gross UN scandals. The UN is a forum for states, it cannot back a government of any sovereign state. #Libya
Which is why when I see the prefix "UN-backed," I automatically assume on the part of the journalist woeful ignorance of both #Libya and international institutions, or worse, a corrupt editorial decision from above to propagate on behalf of this criminal Islamist proxy.
Does the UN "back" Islamist terrorists, human traffickers, arms traffickers, tyrants, war criminals, money launderers. thieves, and militias who machine gun civilains? If so, proof of support must be shown. It would be interesting to say the least. #Libya https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2020/08/libya-heavy-weaponry-used-to-disperse-peaceful-protesters-demanding-economic-rights/
Yes, @UNSMIL aka UN Special Mission to #Libya is indeed a questionable group. Their behavior does suggest they are implicated in the criminal affairs of the GNA junta and its foreign backers. E.g. see AP report on the misappropriation of EU funds and LPDF https://apnews.com/article/9d9e8d668ae4b73a336a636a86bdf27f
I have repeatedly asked @UNSMIL if they do in fact "back" the GNA as accused by so many journalists. They have never responded. While UN officials do enjoy immunity and they can and have gotten away with all kinds of crimes including child sex abuse, a scandal is still a scandal.
An 2017 AP report revealed a massive, and astrounding sexual abuse scandal among UN missions running over a decade. No one was jailed. Nothing like immunity from prosecution to invite corruption and in that spirit, what better cover than the blue label? https://apnews.com/article/e6ebc331460345c5abd4f57d77f535c1
Since 2011, the UN has been the midwife to new depths of corruption, misery, backwardness and terror in #Libya. To this day, @UNSMILibya unlawfully maneuvers to circumvent the will and interests of the Libyan people to service the agendas of #Turkey+ #Qatar

The latest effort to rescue #Libya from the prospect of democracy, peace and more specifically to sabotage the 5+5 ceasefire agreement is this circus of corruption called the "Libyan Political Dialogue Forum"-which no Libyan asked for and is anything but Libyan or constitutional.
Below is the English translation from Al Wasat on the opinion of #Libya's leading constitutional lawyer on the LPDF. From Sept, it does not include the content of the LPDF and the whistleblowers who revealed the bribery party that subsequently took place. https://almarsad.co/en/2020/09/27/constitutional-lawyer-azza-maghur-evaluates-the-next-plan-for-libya/
