Representatives of Libya's two main rival camps — the Tripoli-based Government of National Unity and the eastern Libyan National Army — signed an agreement in Tripoli on 30 August 2026 aimed at breaking the country's long-running political deadlock and paving the way for presidential and parliamentary elections within 24 months. The deal, brokered through a UN-facilitated eight-member dialogue committee known as the "4+4" format, calls for reconstituting the national electoral commission and amending the legal and constitutional frameworks needed to hold a vote. However, the agreement's prospects are already in doubt: the head of the Presidential Council issued a competing appointment to lead the electoral body on the same day the deal was signed, and the leadership of the High Council of State objected on the grounds that it had not seen the full text — reflecting the fragility of a peace process that has been stalled since elections scheduled for December 2021 collapsed amid disputes over candidate eligibility.
