Diplomatic evolution in Libya, during an unexpected meeting. Indeed, UNSMIL chief Martin Kobler has had a surprise meeting with Khalifa Hafter after almost a year during which the armed forces commander-in-chief has repeatedly refused to see him. Discussions had been cordial, according to both sides, and the implementation of the LPA (Libyan Political Agreement – signed in December 2015, but never recognized by East Libyan government). It seems however unclear why Haftar has accepted the meeting, indeed, last September, Kobler has confirmed the role of Haftar in Libyan peace process, but he HoR (House of Representatives) answered to him that he should go out of libyan peace process. But Haftar seems to increase his relations with international powers.
