​The UK remains deeply concerned about the situation in Libya. We are working closely with our international partners, including the other member states of the EU, to support UN-led efforts to secure an end to the fighting and a return to a UN-led political process. Our close work with the international community, including our EU partners, to achieve these ends was demonstrated by a UN Security Council press statement of 5 July, a P3+3 (UK, US, France, Italy, Egypt and UAE) statement of 16 July, and EU statements of 12 April and 5 July.
