The Acting Head of the UN mission in Libya (UNSMIL), Stephanie Williams said that the participants of the Libyan Political Dialogue Forum, which is being held in Tunisia, have reached an agreement on holding free, fair, inclusive and credible parliamentary and presidential elections, within 18 months.

She also added that the agreement includes steps to unite institutions and to return displaced people.
