The Tobruk-based Libyan parliament is preparing to vote on the new constitutional referendum and to adopt a series of laws on the anticipated parliamentary and presidential elections, amid concerns that the legislature will fail to meet the necessary quorum to complete the voting process. During the sessions on Monday and Tuesday, the parliament needs 120 votes in favor of the constitution out of 200. Members who had previously boycotted the parliament, including Misurata deputies west of the country, will attend the sessions as part of an unprecedented attempt to win the needed support to adopt a draft-law on the referendum and to pave the way for elections. Meanwhile, a number of parliamentarians were invited to take part in a dialogue organized by a European center in the Netherlands on the same day of the referendum on the constitution. Parliament member Abu Bakr Saeed described the move as “an attempt to hinder the constitutional events in Libya”. This is considered “a suspicious intervention”, he revealed in statements on Friday. Deputy Special Representative for Political Affairs in Libya, United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) Stephanie Williams continued her meetings with the Government of National Accord in Tripoli where she held talks with Libyan Minister of Interior Abdulsalam Ashour. According to a brief statement, Williams confirmed UN commitment to coordinate rebuilding and unifying security institutions in Libya along with the international community. Justice and Construction Party, the political arm of the Muslim Brotherhood, denied charges made by LNA spokesman Ahmed al-Mesmari during a news conference regarding what he called the “financial violations of the party leadership”. The party described Mesmari’s statements as “baseless lies and fabrication”. Meanwhile, in an escalation of the French-Italian dispute on the possibility of holding the elections in Libya by the end of the year, Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte stated, "I have told Emmanuel Macron (Frances President) that Italy is not in favor of forcing the situation and will not back any ill-considered moves in Libya - elections should only be held after the countrys rival factions have reconciled.” He added that his government is seeking to return centralization to the Mediterranean Sea, after it was marginalized due to the European Union’s expansion to the north and east.
