TRIPOLI, Oct. 19 (Xinhua) -- Dutch Ambassador to Libya Eric Strating expressed Thursday hope for fast results of the UN-sponsored negotiations between Libyan parties aimed at amending the current political agreement.
Ambassador Strating made his remarks during a meeting with the Libyan UN-backed Prime Minister Fayez Serraj in the capital Tripoli on Thursday.
According to the Prime Minister's media office, the two officials discussed bilateral relations and mutual cooperation.
"We are continuing working on providing services and solving the problems facing municipalities in different parts of Libya. We are also working to establish security in the whole country and to address the issue of illegal immigration," Serraj said during the meeting.
Serraj also pointed out that he is "following up the implementation of the the road map proposed by the Special Representative of the UN Secretary General Ghassan Salame," the media office said.
Ambassador Strating also met on Thursday with the Head of the Higher Council of State Abdurrahman Swehli and discussed Libya's current political situation.
"We fully support the path of UN-sponsored negotiations to amend the political agreement between the House of Representatives and the Higher Council of State, in accordance with the road map announced in New York," Strating said during the meeting with Swehli.
"We look forward to fast positive results from these negotiations, in order to restore stability in Libya and improve living conditions," Strating added.
Ghassan Salame has proposed an action plan later in September to end Libya's political crisis in late September.
Salame's action plan includes amendment of the current UN-sponsored political agreement, holding a UN-sponsored national conference for all of Libya's political factions, adopting a constitution, and finally election of a president and a parliament. The action plan is aimed at ending the current political crisis of the country.
