Marshal Haftar, commander of the Libyan National Army, and Akil Saleh, chairman of the Chamber of Deputies in Tobruk, are considering this document positively and asked for a little extra time until the next morning to decide on its signing. I hope this decision will be positive.

declared Lavrov.

          Haftar is likely to be able to win.

          If he was sure, he would not have come there, but won.
          He apparently hoped that they would negotiate (bargain) with him, and he was apparently confronted with the fact that everything had already been decided and he just needed to sign it.

            Yesterday I listened to the news on the radio, one political scientist triumphantly declared that Moscow had wiped her nose! It connects the incompatible and spreads the irreconcilable in the corners. Unrivaled international negotiator and breeder!

            The truce agreement is already, they say, in your pocket, and Lavrov has confirmed this. He said that the Libyans still need a little time. But this is a formality! Since we (puppeteers) have already decided everything for them with the Turks.

            Not, well, and then, grandmas are paid. Behind Haftar Egypt, the KSA, the UAE, if he rolls away, oh how will the public ask. smile I could not go to negotiations, not according to the rules, and I must respect the Russians. But he immediately made a condition (according to rumors from the negotiations) that the Turks should completely leave, withdraw their proxies, and cease the supply of arms to Saraju. He received a categorical rejection of the Turks and politely dumped at sunrise.

              Well, ridiculously by golly. lol Haftar "demanded" something there. Yes, he missed his chance to demand something there. Only the winner can demand. If he took Tripoli, then demand. And then, what kind of naivety is it to demand from Erdogan? Yes, Erdogan laid down the demands of Washington. And then some kind of Haftar with his ambitions. If there really were such demands, then most likely the negotiations will end in nothing. And Erdogan will definitely not rest until he grinds this Haftar into powder. And I doubt that someone can stop Erdogan.

                Erdogan will not erase. He was left alone in the struggle for Cypriot gas and Libyan oil. Tunisia and Algeria, which initially showed support for him, have now backtracked. All the Gulfs, except Qatar, support Haftar. Israel (read the USA) clearly supported Greece in the fight for Cypriot gas, and implicitly - again the Tobrukites and the LNA. And so on.
                Turkey will not send regular forces: far, expensive, there are many potential victims. And let the "green meat" go, there will be more clean air in Idlib. Vaughn already "the first went".

                And Haftar will continue negotiations slowly, slowly, and when he takes Tripoli, you will see something and sign it.
                After Moscow, he flew to Jordan to Abdullah. Now he is listening to a lecture on diplomacy and political art and will agree to further negotiations, not because Erdogan scared.

          I agree. Haftar has a good chance of winning. But probably it makes sense to track the news for a couple of upcoming days. Something tells us that the Kremlin’s press service will report that telephone conversations with French President Macron have taken place. GDP Macron will tell on the phone what Frau Merkel thinks about it, because with Angela they discussed the Libyan topic face to face in the Kremlin office. It seems that Haftar would like to know the position of everyone from whom he has informal support, and Macron has not yet identified himself in this topic. And probably somewhere after that, Haftar will just read the text of the ceasefire and make a decision.

        He needs to save face in front of his associates ...

        He will save his face only in one case, if he continues and successfully completes the offensive. That is, it will take Tripoli. The local mentality does not accept otherwise. Otherwise, many supporters will turn away from him as a weak one.
        For a successful attack, he simply does not have enough strength. What he originally intended was to be done quickly. Win. And the winners are not judged. And his offensive stalled. And at the moment, the Hawtor has not a single chance. Especially after the actual connection to the situation of the NATO country of Turkey.
        At the moment, it is more appropriate to raise the question of not saving faces, but about saving lives.
        And judging by his behavior, he already understood this.

              The proposed version of the ceasefire agreement in Libya did not contain requirements of the Libyan National Army (LNA), said LNA commander Marshal Khalifa Haftar on Al Arabiya television channel.

              “The project ignores many of the demands of the Libyan army,” said the marshal.

            He already made a mistake. Tripoli is not taken, but he goes to negotiations, which he did not appoint. So he understands that he won’t take Tripoli. Then why did you come? What was he waiting for? What will be babysitting with him?

          Far from being a fact. Stupidly take Tripoli by storm, he already had the opportunity. And he had the necessary strength. But he did not use it because it would lead to a large number of victims and the very "loss of face" and support among the people. Therefore, instead of the assault, there was a blockade. Haftar is in a difficult position. The matter most likely goes to the division of the country, and it makes sense for him to agree to the "half kingdom" instead of losing everything. Apparently he went to think.

              Big people need power more than stupid money. Haftar has big ambitions, he wants to lead the whole country, and not stupidly stock up on oil in its half. That is why he did not storm Tripoli. Large casualties during the assault would have undermined the authority of the future "leader of the nation" in the population.

        This is normal. Hasty decisions can lead to different and bad consequences.

        There is another version:
        The commander of the Libyan National Army (LNA), Khalifa Haftar, who left Moscow without signing a ceasefire agreement with the Government of National Accord (PNS) in Tripoli Faiz Sarraj, said that the proposed version of the document ignored a number of requirements of the LNA.

      It is a pity that the Russian Federation went on about Turkey. Sooner or later, the Haftar will take Tripoli and then he will remember the kidka from the Russian Federation. He thinks that Tripoli is already in his hands and the signing of an agreement for him actually means surrender, plus his associates do not approve of it. However, he will not take Tripoli on his own, where he can compete with the Turks. In a word, the marshal was between a rock and a hard place

        I don’t know how the hammer and the anvil are there, but Haftar managed to tighten up the reserves, regroup and saturate the troops with supplies, because the ends of the supply shoulders are longer than the PPS. So there will be a new round of attacks on saraj. And who lathers it is not yet known. In the Russian context, another competitor in the oil market is no use. The longer the conflict lasts, the better for us, for Russia. Our oil prices are everything. Surprisingly....

      Moscow in this case is nothing more than Minsk for solving Ukrainian problems or Astana for solving Syrian ones.
      Since it is not signed, it means Egypt has not agreed to the conditions. And at the same time, the Emirates and the Saudis. The main help to Haftar comes from there.
      In principle, Haftar still has great chances to win. Libya is still an Arab country and the coming of the Turks is unlikely to positively affect the situation of Saraj. Haftar will have more incentives to unite Libyan tribes on his side.
