The high-level meeting on Libya taking place in Paris on Friday could be followed by another conference in Rome next Spring, according to sources in Italian premier Mario Draghi's office.
Draghi is attending the Paris summit, organised by France, Italy, Germany, the United Nations and Libya. The meeting is aimed at boosting international support for key polls due in war-torn Libya on 24 December and the withdrawal of foreign forces.
Besides the political process in Libya aimed at uniting the country and ending years of violence, Friday's summit was due to look at the country's security, economic and humanitarian situation, including that of migrants.
