The Interior Ministry of the outgoing “interim national unity” government announced on Sunday that a high-level security delegation from the French Interior Ministry will visit Tripoli this week.

The Interior Ministry said that the director of the ministry’s international relations and cooperation department received today the internal security attaché at the French embassy in Libya, in the presence of the head of the department’s international cooperation office, “in preparation for the visit of a high-level security delegation from the French Interior Ministry this week.”

The ministry explained that during the meeting, they discussed the file of security cooperation between the two countries and ways to develop it and prepare a security memorandum of understanding in preparation for its adoption by the interior ministers of Libya and France.

The visit comes as the US and European attempts to expand in western Libya, which has been torn apart by factional fighting, at a time when the outgoing government of Abdelhamid Dbeibeh is working to exploit this to hold on to power.
