The UN Security Council called on the parties to the conflict in Libya to complete the ceasefire agreement "as soon as possible", welcoming the commitment of world powers to support the plan to restore peace in Libya.

"It is very important to move from the current truce to a ceasefire agreement and then to a real political process," (AP) quoted UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres as telling reporters.

He added that a "major step" was taken by the leaders of 12 countries last Sunday by agreeing in a meeting in Berlin on a final document of 55 points in addition to operational plans, explaining that this agreement obliges external powers not to interfere in the Libyan conflict, support the ceasefire and respect the arms embargo Imposed by the United Nations and supporting the political process facilitated by the United Nations.

Guterres stressed that "this is just the beginning" of a long process and needs pressure from the international community on the warring parties, adding, "I believe that the support of the Security Council for these results and other steps may be very important."

The participants in the Berlin conference on Libya stressed on the 19th of January this need not to interfere in the internal affairs of this country and that the solution to the crisis in it would be through a comprehensive political process, as stated in the closing statement of the conference, which was signed by about 16 countries and organizations. They stressed the international efforts to strengthen the control of the arms embargo to Libya and disarm the militias, calling on all parties to distance themselves from the groups included in the United Nations list of terrorism.
