The US Ambassador to Libya, Richard Norland, called on the political actors to listen to the remarks of the U.N. envoy Abdoulaye Bathily and "consider how they can be a part of the solution that breaks the political impasse.”

This came in a tweet posted by the US Embassy in Libya on Saturday.

Bathily held a press conference in Tripoli on Saturday to explain his vision to help Libya reach elections by forming a high-level panel of Libyan stakeholders "to ensure broader national ownership of the electoral process by Libyans from different walks of life."
