The National Citizen Party has decided not to attend today’s much-awaited July National Charter signing ceremony, let alone sign the document containing reforms agreed upon after months of intense talks.

Meeting began at 6:25pm

The National Consensus Commission yesterday sent the final version of the July Charter to political parties, seeking their firm commitment to its full implementation.
