UN negotiator pressures Libya's warring parties to reach agreement


(MENAFN- Saudi Press Agency) The UN negotiator assigned to lead a new round of peace talks in Libya called Monday for the parties to take advantage
of a unique opportunity to unify their country, dpa reported.

Bernardino Leon, speaking in the Moroccan village of Skhirat, said
the participants in the talks have a chance to prevent their country
falling into an endless cycle of violence.

'The eyes of the Libyan people are on you, full of expectations and
full of hope that your words and deeds will silence the guns,'
Bernardino said.

He hopes for an agreement to end the conflict in the country before
Ramadan begins on June 17.

The participants in the talks in Morocco are representatives of the
rival parliaments in Libya. One is the internationally recognized
parliament in Tobruk and the other is a house of representatives
supported by Islamists in Tripoli.
