Upon the request of members of the Proposals Bridging Committee of the Libyan Political Dialogue Forum (LPDF), the United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) facilitated on Thursday a virtual meeting of the Committee to continue the efforts to find common ground and complete the development of a constitutional basis that will enable the holding of national elections on 24 December 2021 in line with the LPDF roadmap, according to UNSMIL.
“The meeting took place in a cordial atmosphere, with the Committee resuming the negotiations it had started in Geneva two weeks ago. Members of the Committee agreed to continue their work immediately after the Eid Al-Adha holidays, focusing on reaching an agreement on a draft constitutional basis that will be submitted to the LPDF plenary,” UNSMIL said in a statement.
Eid Al-Adha holiday usually takes four days; starting, this year, from Monday, July 19.
