The UN Secretary-General, Ban Ki-moon, has said that the abduction of Libyan Prime Minister Ali Zeidan was a “wake-up call’’ on the need to restore political stability and rule of law in Libya.
“This very unfortunate abduction of the prime minister is a clear wake-up call,’’ he said on the sidelines of a regional summit in Brunei.
“We still see continuing violence and political instability,’’ he added.
“The UN has been working very closely with Libyan authorities and neighbouring countries to help them to first of all establish their political stability and establish rule of law.’’
“It would be very important for the Libyan government, their leadership, to have inclusive dialogue and reconciliation so that all the people can really join this political transition,” he added.
