Libya’s parliament will meet on Monday ahead of a vote on the unity government headed by PM Abdul Hamid Al-Dabaib in Sirte. Sources close to Dabaib revealed that he carried out a secret visit to Abugrein on Saturday, and then returned to his hometown in Misrata. During his visit, he met with leaders from the Government of National Accord without reaching an agreement on opening the road linking Misrata to Sirte before the confidence session. The United Nations Support Mission for Libya (UNSMIL) seeks to deploy a limited number of impartial, unarmed, non-uniformed, international monitors, to complement the Libyan monitors deployed by the 5+5 JMC. For their part, members of the Libyan Political Dialogue Forum expressed willingness to remove any political obstacle that would arise from a possible failure of the parliament to meet or vote. This means that the forum might convene in order to grant the government the vote of confidence instead of the parliament. Ahead of the session, an airplane carrying a delegation from the parliament landed in Ghardabiya Airbase. The unity government includes 27 portfolios and six ministers of state. In the same context, US Ambassador Richard Norland has considered that Libya is undergoing a critical phase that would shape its future. He added that Libya is in the process of rebuilding the country and achieving a genuine democracy, stressing that both women and men should be part of the process. Egypts Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry and UN Special Envoy to Libya Jan Kubisch discussed the latest developments in Libya and the political solution that could preserve the country’s unity. Shoukry stressed that all parties should adhere to the ceasefire and to the withdrawal of foreign forces and mercenaries from Libya.
