Libya’s PC is calling for further support before the elections

Deputy Chairman of Libya’s Presidential Council, Moussa al-Koni, has called for an international conference similar to the Berlin conferences, bringing together all of the country’s rival parties to resolve ongoing differences, according to a statement by the council on Tuesday.

Al-Koni made his appeal during a meeting with German Ambassador to Libya Michael Ohnmacht. He told the German diplomat that there is a “need to continue the political path that Germany sponsored during the first and second Berlin conferences, to bring together the Libyan parties,” according to the council.

This comes after the Presidential Council had launched an initiative to carry out talks with the political parties to agree on a road map to organize the delayed presidential and parliamentary elections.

For his part, Ohnmacht affirmed his support for “all efforts and initiatives aimed at resolving the current political crisis.”
