Abstract

The Security Council has an active role in addressing international crises and dealing with their causes. The Libyan crisis is one of the most important real tests of the Security Council and its role in maintaining international peace and security, as the Council has proven so far an ineffective role in resolving the crisis and dealing withtheir causes, which has prolonged its duration and increased its complexities and dangerous repercussions, perhaps the most prominent of which is the threat of the recently achieved cease-fire and the formation of a new transitional government led by Abdel Hamid al-Dabaiba, the growing significant obstacles facing the political process, foremost of which is the continued presence of foreign forces , mercenary forces, and the failure of the Libyan parties to achieve consensus on the components of the political map. In it. It affirms its support for the Presidential Council and the transitional government, and calls for the unification of security and military institutions, agreement on constitutional rules, and the need to hold fair and free elections on time. Thus, although the Council identifies the obstacles and causes of the Libyan crisis and the obstacles to progress in the road map, it does not take practical measures that would enable it to play an effective and real role, as it remains within the framework of general treatments based on appeals and demands through non-binding presidential statements, which negatively affectes the crisis led to its complexity.

Undoubtedly, the game of interests is an attempt to limit the influence of other major countries involved in this conflict, and for this the Council failes because of the use of the veto right by those major countries that defend their interests and do not primarily defend the Libyan interest, which requires achieving stability and Libyan community peace
