Libya

Question
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they have undertaken any planning, either unilaterally or with international partners, to increase military engagement on the ground in the event of a lack of progress towards peace in Libya.
Answer

We undertake planning, together with our international partners, for a range of contingencies as the situation in Libya develops. It is clear in UN Resolution 1973 that there should be no foreign occupation of any part of Libya. We will adhere strictly to that, as to all other parts of the resolution.
