A Libyan interim unity government has been chosen to replace the war-torn country's rival administrations and oversee elections in December, APA reports citing BBC.
Delegates at a UN-led forum voted for a three-member presidential council and a prime minister at the end of five days of talks in Geneva.
It is a key step in a peace process that builds on last year's ceasefire.
Libya has been in chaos since long-time ruler Muammar Gaddafi was deposed and killed in 2011 by Nato-backed forces.
The turmoil in the North African nation, which has one of the continent's biggest reserves of oil and gas, has had repercussions for the whole region with Gaddafi's looted arsenal fuelling a variety of militants and groups.
It has also allowed the country to become a key trafficking point for migrants seeking to reach Europe across the Mediterranean.
