The State of Qatar on Sunday expressed its gratitude to Morocco for its support for dialogue and compromise between the Libyan parties, as well as for the Kingdom’s efforts in hosting the meeting of the Libyan 6+6 joint commission tasked by the Libyan House of Representatives and High Council of State with drafting the electoral laws for the legislative and presidential elections in Libya.

In a statement issued by the Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Qatar welcomed the compromise reached by the members of the Libyan 6+6 Joint Commission as an important step towards implementing the political agreement to hold presidential and legislative elections.

The Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs also affirmed its support for the efforts of the United Nations Mission in Libya to carry out its missions, reiterating its full support for the political process in Libya, the holding of presidential and legislative elections on schedule to ensure the country’s stability, and the achievement of the Libyan people’s aspirations for development and prosperity.

The “6+6” joint commission announced, last week in Bouznika, that after two weeks of meetings in Morocco, its members had reached a compromise on the laws governing the presidential and parliamentary elections scheduled for the end of the year.

The Bouznika meeting is a continuation of the series of meetings hosted by the Kingdom, bringing together the various Libyan parties with a view to deepening dialogue on ways and means of resolving the crisis in the country, following an approach that provides the right space for dialogue and constructive consultation.
