This analysis reveals challenges in multilateral diplomacy and post-conflict stabilization in Libya.
This article analyzes the United Nations (UN) role in managing the Libyan conflict during 2011-2024, focusing on multilateral diplomatic efforts and challenges encountered in the post-conflict stabilization process. Using a historical and political analysis approach, the study highlights the main UN missions in Libya, the effects of Security Council Resolutions, and the role of the United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL). The research reveals that, although the UN achieved limited success in mediating dialogue between rival factions and facilitating ceasefire agreements, persistent challenges related to political fragmentation, interference from international actors, and continued insecurity undermined the effectiveness of peacemaking efforts. The conclusions suggest that improved coordination between various UN agencies and other international actors, as well as an approach better adapted to local dynamics, could increase the efficiency of UN interventions in complex conflicts such as the one in Libya.
