EU Expands Scope of Libya Sanctions Regime

The European Union clarified that the criteria for listing an individual or entity under the bloc's Libya sanctions regime will now include those who undermine the elections planned under the Libyan Political Dialogue Forum Roadmap. This move further complies with a similar United Nations Security Council resolution, the European Council said in a June 21 news release. The council also called on the international community to take greater steps to comply with Libya-related U.N. Security Council resolutions.
