Tunisia and Libya seek joint roadmap to boost cooperation
Tunis hosted preparatory talks for the 23rd High Joint Commission session, which is due to be held in Tripoli.
Tunisia and Libya are seeking to give new momentum to their bilateral cooperation, particularly in security, economic and trade matters. Preparatory talks for the 23rd session of the High Joint Commission took place in Tunis on November 10 and 11. Tunisian Foreign Minister Mohamed Ali Nafti called for a common roadmap to follow up and implement the recommendations made.
The preparatory commission was co-chaired by Samir Mansar, director general for bilateral relations with Arab countries at Tunisia's Foreign Ministry, and Achraf Al-Tayeb, director of international cooperation at Libya's Foreign Ministry. The delegations examined how to activate existing agreements and draft new legal texts for the next session. Both sides highlighted the complementarity of their economies and their geographic and cultural proximity.
Economic, commercial and investment cooperation were also on the agenda, alongside security. The 23rd High Joint Commission session is scheduled to take place in Tripoli, where the draft legal texts prepared by both delegations are to be reviewed.
