"One of the elements that helped the success of the dialogue in Bouznika was that the dialogue was Libyan. It was developed by the Libyans and chosen by the Libyans, and led by the Libyans, without influence or interference, and this is an important thing because it opened the way for the Libyans to understanding,” he said.

"What we feel is that this dialogue has a positive and long breath that will not before obstacles, and there is a determination to overcome these obstacles," he added.
