Williams urged Libyan parties to shoulder their responsibility in reviving hope for the Libyans through paving the way for elections after agreeing on a constitutional framework in this regard. The constitutional track meetings started in Cairo on 13 April and the second round started in May. Through this round of negotiations, the Libyan sides are set to agree on a constitutional framework for holding the elections after agreeing on the rest of articles. Cairo has affirmed support to Debaibah’s government when it was selected during a UN-sponsored process last year and vowed to cooperate with the Libyan officials until elections are held.
