The statement called on the Presidency Council of the GNA, being the supreme commander of the armed forces, to act decisively and shoulder its responsibilities be it through efforts to unify the country and end state of fighting and divisions, or by supporting the legitimate military institutions to put an end to attempts to drag the country and the people to the quagmire of bloodbath and chaos.
