Libya loses voting rights at UN General Assembly over non-payment of UN dues2/4/16 Libya has had its voting rights UN General Assembly (UNGA) suspended because it has not paid its membership dues, it has been revealed.
Under Article 19 of the UN Charter, member states lose their right to vote in UNGA “if the amount of its arrears equals or exceeds the amount of the contributions due from it for the preceding two full years”.
In a letter to the UNGA a fortnight ago, Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said that to have the ban lifted, Libya would have to pay a minimum of $1,369,638 towards reducing its debt. [ link to www.libyaherald.com (secure)]
