U.N. to start Libya election rules meeting without eastern parliament
The U.N. Libya mission said consultative meetings with legislators about election rules would start on Tuesday even though the eastern-based parliament has not yet named members to a joint committee on the subject.
The meetings are part of an initiative by U.N. Libya adviser Stephanie Williams, backed by Western countries, to break a standoff between two rival governments in the country.
Amid civil war, Libya split in 2014 between warring eastern and western factions. The High State Council, a legislative body that backed the western side, has named its six members to the committee.
The U.N. mission said in a statement it expects the eastern-based House of Representatives to name its representatives to the committee and to “join the meeting in the coming days.”
