The results of the much-anticipated Libya peace conference in Berlin, which was convened in the hope of ending the years-long civil war and chaos in the country, are being announced.


German Chancellor Angela Merkel and United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres are presenting the results of the intensive talks at a final press conference on Sunday evening.



The conference in Berlin was tasked with reaching a lasting ceasefire between Prime Minister of the UN-backed Tripoli-based Government of National Accord (GNA), Fayez al-Sarraj, and his rival Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar, whose forces have been closing in on Tripoli in recent months.
