Earlier, an official spokesman for the UN Secretary General Stefan Dujarric commented on the Moscow talks on Libya, which took place on January 13. According to him, it is important that these events help organize the meeting in Berlin on the Libyan settlement.
It was noted that the Russian-Turkish talks on Libya held in Moscow ended without signing an armistice agreement.
As noted by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, progress has been made in the negotiations. A draft document was considered that will make it possible to specify issues related to the ceasefire, it was signed by the Chairman of the Government of National Unity of Libya Faiz Saraj and the Chairman of the State Council Khaled Mishri.
In turn, the commander of the Libyan National Army Khalifa Haftar and the chairman of the Chamber of Deputies in Tobruk, Agila Saleh, asked for a little extra time “until the next morning” to decide on the signing of the document.
