UN Libya envoy threatens sanctions against those who bloc peace deal


(MENAFN- Saudi Press Agency) Rome Muharram 10 1437 Oct 23 2015 SPA -- Libyan leaders working against a peace deal that is key
to save the North African nation from the ISIS terrorist
group will face international sanctions the United Nations envoy who
is brokering talks warned in an interview Friday dpa reported.

Libya is split between an internationally-recognized parliament in
Tobruk and an Islamist-leaning assembly in the capital Tripoli.
Earlier this week an ultimatum was missed for the two sides to
accept a national unity government.

"Some figures in the two camps of Tripoli and Tobruk are sabotaging
the agreement" Leon told Italian newspaper La Repubblica. "But the
international community has decided that it cannot allow it. If the
sabotage continues sanctions will come" he added.

The UN Security Council threatened such action last week.
