The two parties to the Libyan conflict announced, at the end of a second round of dialogue in Morocco, that they had reached "comprehensive understandings" regarding sovereign institutions, stressing that these understandings must endorse the constitutional institutions in Libya, in order to proceed with the procedures for renewing the structures of sovereign institutions.

In a statement issued at the end of this round of negotiations, which began last Friday, in Bouznika, south of Rabat, Morocco, the delegations of the House of Representatives and the Supreme Council of State said that the negotiations culminated in reaching comprehensive understandings about the controls, mechanisms and criteria for selecting the occupants of the leadership positions of the sovereign institutions, stipulated In Article 15 of the 2015 Political Agreement concluded in Skhirat, Morocco.

The statement indicated that the two dialogue delegations put the record of the consensuses that were reached in the first and second rounds at the disposal of the Parliament and the Supreme Council of State institutions, to proceed with the procedures for renewing the structures of sovereign institutions.

The first round of talks in Bouznika took place, in early September, at the initiative of the Kingdom of Morocco, which hosted peace talks under the auspices of the United Nations in 2015 in Skhirat, during which the two parties to the conflict reached a political agreement in which a government of reconciliation was formed.

The statement considered that what was reached during the two rounds of dialogue in Bouznika constitutes an asset that can be built upon to bring the country to stability and end the state of institutional division, pointing out that the political process in Libya is still waiting for clear and real support from the international community.

The acting United Nations envoy to Libya, Stephanie Williams, said that the United Nations is now preparing for a series of meetings and consultations to facilitate the resumption of talks, with the aim of reaching a comprehensive political agreement.
