Talks were scheduled to begin on June 8.
Meanwhile, Sameh Shoukri, Egypt’s Foreign Affairs minister, met officials from Italy and Algeria in Cairo on June 7 to discuss Libya.
Cairo has grown increasingly impatient at the instability at its border and is concerned a flood of extremists and militias will cross into its territory.
Shoukri said Egypt will use military force if necessary and warned the international community to “stop wasting time.” Egypt bombed militant strongholds in Libya following the group executions by ISIL of Egyptian Coptic Christians.
The Libya Dawn armed alliance in Tripoli points to Egypt in the arming of the eastern-based government, which cannot buy weapons legally as Libya remains under a 2011 arms embargo.
Egypt has said it backs a political solution between Libya Dawn and the UN-supported government. United Nations envoy Bernardino Leon is looking for an agreement to be reached between the warring Libya factions before the June 17 start of Ramadan.
Peace talks, taking place in the Moroccan resort town of Skhirat, “will discuss a new draft” of an agreement to end the conflict, the UN mission to Libya said on June 5.
“UNSMIL is of the firm conviction that this round will be decisive,” the mission said.
Saying Libya was at a “critical juncture,” the mission called on the factions “to shoulder their historic responsibilities” by reaching a peace deal.
