CAIRO, July 5 (Xinhua) — Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sisi on Saturday reiterated the importance of reaching a comprehensive political settlement in Libya to hold long-delayed elections, according to a statement released by the Egyptian presidential office.

A.-F. al-Sisi made the statement during a meeting with the speaker of the eastern Libyan House of Representatives, Aqeela Saleh, during which they discussed the latest developments in the country.

The President reiterated Egypt's support for Libya's national institutions, stressing the importance of preserving the country's sovereignty and unity. He also noted the need for all foreign forces to withdraw from Libya so that Libyan institutions can stabilize the country.

A. Saleh, for his part, thanked Egypt for its support for Libya's unity and institutions, calling it vital for restoring peace and moving towards elections.

UN-backed presidential elections scheduled for December 2021 have been postponed due to disagreements over electoral laws and eligibility of candidates, deepening the political crisis. –0–
