As part of its ongoing attempts to increase its influence in Libya, the country that was destroyed by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) in 2011, and which is witnessing attempts to revive in the east of the country, France signed an agreement, through its embassy in Tripoli, to train administrative cadres.
The agreement, which was signed by the Chairman of the Advisory Council of State, Mohamed Takala, took place during his meeting with the French Ambassador to Libya, Mustafa Maharaj, the Cooperation Attaché at the French Embassy, the Regional Director of the Experts France Foundation, Stephane On, and the Foundation’s Program Director, Maxime Post.
The State Advisory Council said in a statement that the meeting was attended by the First Vice President of the Council, Masoud Obaid, directors of departments and offices in the Council, and a number of members of the France Experts Foundation.
The statement added, “During the meeting, a technical cooperation agreement was signed between the State Council and the France Experts Foundation to train a number of the Council’s office employees within the framework of the capabilities and human resources development program that the Council has been carrying out for a year to raise the efficiency of the office’s employees.”
In a post on its “Facebook” page, the “France Experts Foundation” stated that the program aims to improve the skills of administrators in the Supreme Council of State, through training courses in partnership with the French National Institute of Public Service in France, where a number of employees of the Council’s office will be trained within the framework of The capabilities and human resources development program carried out by the Council to raise the efficiency of its employees.
The “France Experts” Foundation is active in Libya through many projects, within the context of Paris’s attempts to gradually expand on Libyan lands, the western part of which is witnessing an ongoing struggle between traditional colonial powers over influence.
