Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar, commander of Libya’s General Forces, stressed the need to redouble the European Union’s efforts to promote stability in Libya by supporting the political process and facilitating the holding of presidential and parliamentary elections.
This confirmation came during a meeting in Benghazi with the Ambassador of the European Union to Libya, “Nicola Orlando”, and his accompanying delegation, where the two sides discussed during the meeting the recent developments on the local and regional arena.
Orlando praised the role played by the Libyan General Forces in achieving security and stability inside the country, in addition to their distinguished efforts in combating illegal immigration.
Orlando, who is visiting the Eastern Province to meet with a number of officials and inspect various projects, stressed the EU’s commitment to being a key partner of Libya, explaining that the Union seeks to strengthen cooperation and support development in Libya.
It is noteworthy that the Italian diplomat Nicola Orlando served as the Italian Deputy Ambassador to Libya from 2017 to 2019, and in May 2021 he was appointed Special Envoy of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs for Libya, and on September 4, 2023, the Government of National Unity approved his appointment as Ambassador Plenipotentiary and Extraordinary of the European Union to Libya.
The elections scheduled for December 24, 2021, have been postponed more than once due to the worsening political conflict in Libya between rival parties.
