A member of the Libyan Supreme Council of State, Souad Ertima, revealed that the tripartite meeting between President of the Presidential Council, Mohamed Al-Menfi, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Aguila Saleh, and Head of the Supreme Council of State, Mohamed Takala, was supposed to be held last Saturday in Morocco, and not in Cairo as was rumored.
In a statement to Libya Al-Ahrar TV, Ertima explained that the reason for postponing the meeting was due to the charge d’affaires of the UN mission, Stephanie Khoury, being busy with her presence at the United Nations during that period. It also confirmed the existence of an Egyptian intention to host the meeting in Cairo instead of Morocco.
The French website “Africa Intelligence” announced that the meeting will be held under the auspices of the Arab League and mediated by the head of Egyptian intelligence, Abbas Kamel, in Cairo next Thursday, June 27.
The French website revealed an expected visit by the head of the outgoing “National Unity” government, Abdel Hamid Dbeibeh , to Egypt on the fourth of July.
This tripartite meeting is considered the second round of negotiations after the first meeting held in the Egyptian capital last March.
These negotiations aim to unify Libyan institutions and establish mechanisms that will lead the country to the long-awaited general elections.
