The former speaker of the General National Congress and Leader of the Ya Baladi Party, Nuri Abu Sahmain, said on Saturday that he had received an offer to be a member of the new Presidential Council for the western region, pointing out that the UN Mission contacted him before April 04, 2019 to attend the Ghadames conference. Speaking to a group of politicians, activists and media organizations in Tripoli to discuss the current situation in Libya, Abu Sahmain explained that he requested the UN Mission to provide the agenda and the details for that conference, but he didn’t obtain any clarifications. Commenting on the UN-sponsored Libyan Political Dialogue Forum, to be held in Tunisia this week, he challenged the participants to know the agenda. Abu Sahmain reviewed during the Saturday meeting, the party’s vision of recent political events, giving a briefing on his visits and dialogues with some countries and organizations and Libyan personalities. He also expressed his hope that the same mistakes that imposed a bitter reality on the Libyan people from the distress of living, the war on Tripoli and the violation of national sovereignty would not be repeated.
