Tripoli, 11.08.2015(Lana) The UN special envoy, Bernardino Leon confirmed the participation of all Libyan parties in the new round of political dialogue in Geneva, conceding that Libya is facing extremely huge challenges. At a press conference Tuesday in Geneva, at the start of the new round of Libyan dialogue, Leon said; " All parties are taking part in the political dialogue without exceptions". The new round of Libyan dialogue in Geneva would discuss issues of a government of national unity, state council, and composition of the government, he added. He explained that " The other track which is being worked is to ensure also participation of political parties in this dialogue during the coming days so that all Libyans would be represented in the political process". He also pointed out that there is another security track to ensure security on the ground with any agreement to be reached. Leon revealed that parties would be invited to work during the coming three weeks up to August, hoping that desire and political will of all parties would be a factor to sign the final accord in the first week of September and before convening the UN General Assembly. Leon said now work is on appendixes which would include formation of the government of national unity, assurances to the parties. He stressing that he would listen to concerns of all and that assurances do not concern only one party, as proposals would be put forward to see if they can be incorporated into the appendixes to be ultimately enclosed to the political accord. =Lana=
