The message was conveyed by the Qatari foreign minister Sheikh Hamad during his meeting with the Libyan leader yesterday evening in Tripoli.

The Qatari FM called for convening a meeting at the highest level of the Arab states to be dedicated for the Arab situation after Libya expressed its determination to withdraw from the Arab League.
