CAIRO - 23 November 2020: The United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) reported, on Sunday, that Cairo will host a meeting of the Legal Committee next December to discuss several constitutional issues. Alam denied Cairo would host any meetings of the Libyan Political Dialogue Forum, indicating the Legal Committee will discuss several legal issues, including the constitutional arrangements for the upcoming elections. UNSMIL hoped that this will facilitate the discussions on constitutional arrangements during the Libyan Political Dialogue Forum and contribute to paving the way towards a political settlement. It has been reported that the meeting also tackled the ways of keeping the cease-fire between the National Libyan Army, led by Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar, and the forces of the Tripoli-based National Accord Government, presided by Fayez al-Saraj. This came in a closed session on protecting the Egyptian and Libyan national security against terror threats.
