LIBYA, 1 February, 2021 (TON): UN-sponsored Inter-Libyan participants are meeting to choose the new Prime Minister and the Presidential Council on Monday.

According to the reports, the delegates will have until Friday to choose a new Prime Minister and Presidential Council.

For those who desire peace in the Libyan region, this week will be a decisive week.

A move that would help lead the transition in the conflict-ridden country as many hope to see elections in December 2021.

The 75 Libyan delegates will have until Friday to choose from a list of 45 candidates, with key political leaders from both the Eastern and the Western authorities that have fought for power for years but also from the South of the country.

Since November 2020, a dialogue has been carried in Tunisia, a neighboring country.

These terms as an effort to end the atrocities that followed the fall of Libyan strongman Muammar Gaddafi in 2011.

With the UN-backed Government of National Unity and the Tobruk parliament supporting General Khalifa Haftar agreeing to a ceasefire in October, Libya has never been closer to finding peace since the Arab Spring.

The new administration is likely to clog all the violence with its competence and alliance with the strong supporters having the best interests of the country.
