For 3 consecutive days, Tunisia witnessed a large investment forum that included businessmen and officials from the countries of Libya, Tunisia, and Algeria, with the aim of establishing a bloc that brings together the three countries, amid calls to unify the process and form free zones to encourage intra-trade, amid questions about the success and seriousness of the step.
The Tunisian city of Tozeur hosted the first Tunisian-Libyan-Algerian Investment Forum in order to search for the creation of a unified economic and commercial space, while the participants in the meeting called for the enactment of laws that preserve the rights of those wishing to invest in these countries.
The forum witnessed an official presence represented by some ministries, parliaments, and the Supreme Council of State, in addition to investors, businessmen, and public and professional structures in the three countries, with the aim of searching for joint investment opportunities, achieving economic integration, and promoting the products of the three countries, according to the official “Tunisia Africa” agency.
Proposals were presented during the forum’s work, including: unifying the currency between the three countries, establishing agreement mechanisms, activating previously concluded agreements in order to facilitate procedures, creating a unified economic and commercial space, as well as creating a large economic bloc that brings together the three countries rich in human resources and material and natural capabilities, according to the audience.
