Libyan Dialogue Addresses Military and Security Unification

In early May 2026, the Security Track of the Structured Dialogue met in Benghazi to discuss proposals for unifying Libya's military and security institutions. Participants identified challenges such as parallel armed structures, weak enforcement mechanisms, and foreign interference. Emphasizing that political division is a primary obstacle, attendees agreed that political will and alignment with the broader political process are essential for unification. This dialogue represents a concerted effort to address Libya's fragmented security landscape and promote national stability.
