Secretary General Antonio Guterres said on Saturday. One key obstacle has been whether Haftar can head a unified Libyan army under civilian command, which would form part of a new national government. He spoke after a meeting with officials of the Arab League, European Union and African Union ahead of an Arab leaders' summit in Tunis on Sunday.
