The Secretary of State is calling for a roadmap to implement the outcomes of the Joint Committee with Libya

The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Immigration and Tunisians abroad, Mohammad Ali Nafti, met with the head of the Libyan delegation Ashraf Tayeb at the conclusion of the work of the Tunisian-Libyan Joint Committee at the level of senior officials. During the meeting, the Minister stressed the importance of developing a common roadmap for implementing the outcomes of the work of the Committee and coordinating follow-up between the two sides.

The oil chief and the two leaders called for a close follow-up of the various agreed points, in preparation for the upcoming major bilateral gains between the two sides. The Minister informed the results and proposals reached at the meetings to support and develop bilateral cooperation, primarily in the areas of security, economy, trade, investment and energy.

The two-day meetings hosted by Tunisia saw the participation of a Libyan delegation involving officials from multiple sectors, including the head of the General Exhibition and Conference Authority of Assam al-Awal. The working sessions focused on researching institutional coordination mechanisms and expanding the areas of bilateral partnership in the financial, industrial, environmental and water resources fields.

Minister of Foreign Affairs, Immigration and Tunisians Abroad Muhammad Ali Nafthi visited the Libyan capital Tripoli in late October last year, where he met with Libyan National Unity Government President Abdul Hamid al-Dabiba to discuss energy and border files.

The discussions included cooperation files in the transport, telecommunications, mineral, human resources and maritime fisheries sectors, as well as legal, social and cultural fields, security and border coordination and political consultation between the two countries.
