The Arab League Summit is being held in Libya this year by default.  

The venue of the conference is determined on a rotational basis among the organisation's 22 members.

This year it was Iraq's turn to host the summit meeting: however it was mutually agreed that this might not be an appropriate time.

Next in the roster was Djibouti: but this Republic in the Horn of Africa decided to opt out as host, and so in rotation the summit came to Libya.
