RABAT, Morocco (AA) - The speakers of Libya's rival assemblies are expected to meet Friday in Morocco's capital Rabat, a Moroccan official said.
Aguila Saleh, speaker of the Libyan House of Representatives, and Khaled Al-Mishri, the president of Libya's High Council of State, will hold a joint press conference after the meeting, the official added without giving further details.
On Wednesday, Libyan media cited First Vice-President of the Libyan State Council Naji Mokhtar as saying: "Rabat will host a meeting that brings Aguila and Al-Mishri together.”
A member of the Libyan House of Representatives, Al-Hadi Al-Saghir, said that the meeting of Saleh and Al-Mishri comes within the framework of consultations on sovereign positions.
Al-Hadi stated that "there are indications of achieving positive results in the Morocco meeting.”
"The Morocco meeting will also touch on the constitutional track,” he added.
He further said that the parliament and the state have different visions regarding the constitutional base.
Morocco previously hosted five rounds of dialogue between Libya’s disputing sides, the last of which was in January when a mechanism for assuming sovereign positions was agreed upon.
