Fifteen leading Libyan political movements and parties issued a joint statement at the end of their meeting in Benghazi on Saturday, after holding extensive rounds of discussions on the upcoming December elections and key issues undermining progress in Libya. The joint statement said that the only way out of the crisis in the country was through direct Presidential and Parliamentary elections.
The joint statement said they had followed “the repercussions of the current scene of the violation of Libyan sovereignty and foreign military interventions, and the disruption in the implementation of military, economic and political agreements.”
