Speaking at a joint press briefing with minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccan Expatriates, Nasser Bourita, at the end of their talks, Al-Mishri stressed that initiatives for a solution in Libya should come from the Libyans, noting that about a year ago he presented an initiative in this direction which, however, requires amendments.
Also, he said speaker of the House of Representatives, Aguila Saleh, presented an initiative, considering that "as a matter of principle, the proposal of political initiatives is a positive point that should be encouraged and that any initiative has both positive and negative aspects".
Al-Mishri expressed his conviction that the initiatives coming from Libya are those likely to provide a basis from which a political agreement can be developed, stressing the importance of interacting positively with Libyan political initiatives, while trying to combine them with a view to reaching a framework".
In this regard, the Libyan official added, consultations are continuing in Libya, mainly with sovereign institutions and the House of Representatives.
"We believe that the transitional period in Libya must end as soon as possible so that we can move towards presidential and parliamentary elections on a constitutional basis to be agreed".
In this contest, he called on the House of Representatives to meet in an appropriate manner so that the working mechanisms would be correct, precise and clear in order to put an end to this stage.
Al-Mishri also stressed that there is a consensus that there are complications in the Libyan landscape that need to be resolved, saying that from a political point of view, these complications have led, inter alia, to military crises.
Furthermore, he said that acting outside the political agreement was the cause of all these problems, "which requires all of us to focus on the sensitive points of this political agreement".
Among the elements of concern in this context is "the size of the Presidential Council composed of the President, six representatives, three ministers of State", the official noted, adding that "the size of this Council and the absence of a number of its members have prompted the High Council and the House of Representatives to reflect on mechanisms to develop and amend the political agreement".
Al-Mishri insisted on the need to implement the previous decisions of the High Council of State and the House of Representatives, considering that "the political process has gone through blockages which have pushed us to think of other solutions".
He also praised the efforts that Morocco continues to make and that have been ongoing since the Skhirat agreement, indicating that the Kingdom has hosted a series of meetings between the Libyan parties, leading to the establishment of the political agreement, the official reference point valid today in Libya.
"Morocco has been careful throughout the past periods to intervene in Libyan affairs only in a positive way," said the head of the Libyan High Council of State, calling on all Libyan parties to cooperate and try to find solutions.
He also thanked HM the King, the Moroccan government and people for their warm welcome and the preparation of conditions to bring the Libyans out of their crisis.
He reaffirmed that "Morocco does not present initiatives, but works to facilitate opportunities for Libyans to meet each other in order to reach solutions. A commitment that is lacking from many States that are trying to interfere in the Libyan issue and find a solution, something that is categorically rejected", confident that Morocco had and continues to urge the Libyans to reach an agreement.
The Libyan official further indicated that his country has suffered greatly from foreign interference, insisting that the legitimate force is that of the government of national accord in accordance with the political agreement.
