<p>The UK is firmly committed to supporting the Libyan people and Government, and
I welcome the elections for the Libyan House of Representatives due on 25 June. I
hope it will be conducted in a fair, transparent and accountable way which is respected
by all parties. I believe that the EU, along with our international partners, can
play a crucial role in supporting these elections. An EU Election Experts' Mission
monitored the Constitutional Assembly elections in February, and set out recommendations
for improvements which were shared with the Libyan authorities in a report. We believe
this, along with other EU programmes related to democratic transition in Libya, has
laid a solid foundation to facilitate the June elections.</p>
