    Saif Al-Islam Gaddafi launches an initiative to "end the crisis" in Libya.

The Libyan presidential election candidate, Saif Al-Islam Gaddafi, launched an initiative to "end the crisis" in Libya amid the inability to hold elections last December.

In a statement about the initiative, the son of the former Libyan President suggested "postponing the presidential elections and without delay in holding the parliamentary elections."

Gaddafi considered that "electing a new parliament will spare the country from war and division, save the rest of the road map imposed on the Libyans, and respect the will of 2.5 million voters."

He also clarified that the elected parliament is responsible for taking the necessary measures to complete the presidential elections in a way that guarantees reaching a stage that enables the Libyans to "build their homeland and restore their sovereignty without any external interference and political rivalries."

The Libyan parties' differences over the provisions of the presidential and parliamentary elections law still threaten the electoral process in Libya.

The House of Representatives issued laws to elect the president of state and the parliament, but the Supreme Council of State rejected them because they were issued without negotiation. 

On its part, the Council announced the constitutional basis for holding general elections and the National Assembly law in its upper and lower chambers, in addition to the necessary conditions to run for the position of head of state.

The elections were scheduled for December 24 but were postponed due to differences over basic rules, such as the eligibility of candidates and the role of the judiciary in appeals.

Most recently, Libya's Supreme Council of State called for the presidential and parliamentary elections to be postponed to February 2022.
