London – Hanna Tetteh, the Acting Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General and head of the United Nations Support Mission in Libya, met Tuesday in London with Stephen Doughty, the UK Minister of State for the Middle East and North Africa.

The two officials discussed recent political and economic developments in Libya. They emphasized the importance of building on the momentum generated by the recent mini-summit agreement.
