| Description |
Libya's unrecognised government based in the capital, Tripoli, announced that it is ceding power to a UN-backed unity government. The statement, bearing the logo of the so-called National Salvation Government headed by Khalifa Ghweil, said the Tripoli prime minister, his deputy premiers and cabinet ministers were all stepping aside. The UN-backed Government of National Accord (GNA) will start work on 6 April with some ministers expected to take over from members of the National Salvation Government. However, on 6 April, Tripoli's unrecognised prime minister Khalifa Ghweil called for his ministers not to cede power, contradicting an earlier announcement. |
