Germany on Tuesday announced that it had sent invitations for the second Conference on Libya, scheduled to take place on 23 June in Berlin.
German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas, and United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres, have invited the participating states and regional organisations of the Berlin Process to the Second Berlin Conference on Libya.
This would be the first time that the Libyan transitional government would attend such an event.
The agenda of the conference would include the progress made in the stabilization of the country, preparations for the December 24 national elections and further steps required to boost Libya’s security and economy.
Participants would also discuss withdrawal of foreign troops and mercenaries from Libya following the ceasefire agreement.
Following United Nations-facilitated talks held in October in Geneva, Libya’s warring parties, the Government of National Accord and the Libyan National Army, signed a nationwide ceasefire agreement.
On February 5, the UN-led Libyan Political Dialogue Forum in Geneva voted for a new temporary executive that will be in charge until a national general elections set for December 24. (Sputnik/NAN)
