With the militant group Libya Dawn in control of Tripoli, Libyan parties are trying, under the brokerage of UN Special Representative and head of the UN Support Mission in Libya Bernardino Leon, to reach a political solution to end the crisis over the two parliaments and governments in Libya.
While the dialogue opened in January between the Libyan General National Congress (GNC), the parliament in Tobruk, municipal councils, some armed militias and most of the parties to the conflict are suffering political disputes, Tripoli witnesses daily bloody battles between the national military and Libya Dawn. The Libyan forces led by Gen. Khalifa Hifter’s group are trying in vain to regain control over the capital.
