UN Special Envoy to Libya Bernardino Leon

The UN has presented a draft proposal for a Libyan unity government to warring factions in an attempt to stabilize the conflict-torn country, according to the BBC.

The plan unveiled at talks in Morocco addresses terms of a truce and disarmament of armed groups.

UN special envoy Bernardino Leon urged the Libyans to back the proposal.

Since the overthrow of Muammar Gaddafi in 2011, Libya has descended into chaos and seen jihadist groups fighting for control of the oil-rich nation.

The UN plan calls for a one-year-long national unity government and says that the parliament elected in 2014 is the only legislative body.
