Aiming at once to shore up the fragile government, and prevent Islamic State fighters and rival militias from further gains, the U.S., the four other perma- nent U.N. Security Council members and more than 15 other nations said they would approve exemptions to a United Nations arms embargo to allow military sales and aid to Libya's so- called "Government of Na- tional Accord." In a joint communique, the nations said that while the broader embargo will remain in place, they are "ready to respond to the Lib- yan government's requests for training and equipping" government forces. "We will fully support these efforts while con- tinuing to reinforce the UN arms embargo," the com- munique said. With support from all five permanent members of the U.N. Security Coun- cil, the plan is unlikely to face significant opposition from any quarter. The communique was is- sued at the end of the talks that gathered U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and top officials from more than 20 other nations to discuss ways to strengthen Libya's fledgling government. The aim is to give the interna- tionally recognized admin- istration more muscle in fighting Islamic State radi- cals and end its rivalry with a group to the east claiming legitimacy. The step will boost the government's efforts to con- solidate power and regain control over Libyan state institutions like the cen- tral bank and national oil company. However, it also comes with risks, not least of which is that the arms may be captured or other- wise taken by the Islamic State or other groups. Kerry called the plan "a delicate balance." "But we are all of us here today supportive of the fact that if you have a legitimate government and that legit- imate government is fight- ing terrorism, that legiti- mate government should not be victimized by (the embargo)," he told reporters. Libyan Premier Fayez al- Sarraj said his government would soon submit a weap- ons wish list to the Security Council for approval. "We have a major chal- lenge ahead of us," in fight- ing extremists, he said. "We urge the international com- munity to assist us." Before the meeting, Ger- manForeignMinisterFrank- Walter Steinmeier outlined the high stakes at hand. "The key question is whether Libya remains a place where terrorism, criminal human smuggling and instability continue to expand, or if we are able, to- gether with the government of national unity to recover stability," he told reporters. The challenges are daunting. Libya descended into chaos after the toppling and death of Moammar Gad- dafi five years ago and soon turned into a battleground of rival militias battling for powers. More recently, the power vacuum has allowed Islamic State radicals to ex- pand their presence, giving them a potential base in a country separated from Europe only by a relatively small stretch of the Medi- terranean Sea. Also worrying for Eu- rope is the potential threat of a mass influx of refugees amassing in Libya, now that the earlier route from Turkey into Greece has been essentially shut down. Brit- ish Foreign Secretary David Hammond said his govern- ment had received a request from the Libyan govern- ment to bolster its Coast Guard — a project "which will address Libyan con- cerns about smuggling and insecurity on their border but will also address Euro- pean concerns about illegal migration."
