UAE has called to see a return in the oil production in Libya as soon as possible.
Dr Anwar bin Mohammed Gargash, UAE Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, has made a statement with regards to the same.

"The UAE, alongside its partners, wants to see a return to oil production in Libya as soon as possible, with safeguards in place to prevent the proceeds fuelling further conflict. We continue to work for an immediate ceasefire and return to a political process", he said in a tweet on his official Twitter account.
Dr Gargash had earlier underscored the UAE's unwavering support for efforts by the international community to achieve a political solution to the Libyan crisis.
In remarks delivered virtually during the United Nations Security Council Session on Libya, Dr Gargash also expressed growing concern over foreign regional interference in Libya and the threat it poses to security and stability in the region, as well as the peace process in that country.
"The United Arab Emirates has long held a consistent and clear position on the Libyan crisis: a political solution is the only viable option to resolve the conflict. We continue to call for an immediate and comprehensive ceasefire agreement and resume a Libyan-led political dialogue, under the UN auspices," Gargash remarked.
