EU Lifting Sanctions on Libyan

The European Council will not roll over sanctions on Khalifa Ghwell, Libya's former General National Congress of Libya prime minister and defense minister, it announced in a March 26 news release. Ghwell has been subject to an asset freeze and travel ban since 2016 due to his role in “acts that threaten the peace, stability and security of Libya, or that obstruct or undermine the successful completion of its political transition.” His listing expires April 2.
