"The message to all the parties, whether on the ground or outside of Libya, is clear.  There is no military solution to the current situation in Libya.  The only solution is a political, negotiated solution, which is exactly what our colleague Stephanie Williams is efforted in doing," Dujarric said, when asked about Egyptian possible military intervention in Libya to support Haftar.

"We have had contact with the Egyptian parties at many different levels, and our message to them and to all the other parties is exactly what I’ve just said," he added.

On Monday, Egypt's parliament approved the deployment of the Egyptian armed forces on combat missions outside Egypt's borders, paving the way for possible military intervention in Libya.
