International recognition of the National Transitional Council of Libya was given by the majority of international states but was not universal. By 2012, 104 United Nations members and two observer states had announced they recognised the NTC as the legitimate representative of the Libyan people, and some of them had indicated that they were recognising the NTC as the only legitimate representative of the Libyan people, severing diplomatic relations with Gaddafi's government in the process. Additionally, non-UN members, Kosovo, Palestine, the Republic of China (Taiwan), also granted recognition. The European Union and several individual countries, such as Switzerland, established a diplomatic presence in Benghazi, the former de facto headquarters of the council and the continuing location for many of its offices. NTC officials also met with representatives of Iceland and Mauritania, among other states, though these states were not known to have established permanent diplomatic relations (informal or formal) with the NTC. The United Nations General Assembly, with 114 member states in favour to 17 opposed, voted on 16 September 2011 to recognise the NTC as holding Libya's seat at the United Nations. On 20 September 2011, the African Union officially recognised the National Transitional Council as the legitimate representative of Libya. (en) Le Conseil national de transition (CNT), un organisme apparu lors de la guerre civile libyenne de 2011, se veut le remplaçant du régime de Mouammar Khadafi en attendant l'écriture d'une constitution et des élections. Pour pouvoir être considéré comme représentatif du peuple libyen et donc le représenter sur la scène internationale, une de ses principales préoccupations a été d'obtenir la reconnaissance diplomatique du plus grand nombre possible d'États. Au 14 septembre 2011, 86 pays reconnaissent le CNT comme l'autorité légitime de la Libye. Le 16 septembre, l'Assemblée générale des Nations unies vote en faveur de l'attribution au CNT du siège de la Libye à l'ONU. (fr) |
