Libya's eastern-based parliament chose a new prime minister for the country, former interior minister Fathi Bashagha. The only problem… Libya already has an interim prime minister: Abdul Hamid Dbeibah, chosen by a UN-led process to head the Tripoli-based Government of National Accord. Dbeibah was supposed to guide the fractured country through presidential elections in December, but they were postponed after contestation over the rules governing the process. Dbeibah had promised not to run for president but put his hat in the ring anyway, with the rules apparently mandating that he step down as prime minister for three months before the polls—which he did not do. The Tobruk-based parliament says the deadline means Dbeibah's time is up, but he says he won't hand over power until elections take place. He reportedly survived an assassination attempt shortly before the parliament's move to replace him. None of this bodes well for Libyans' long quest for a united country.
