Russia is contributing to the reconstruction of Libyan infrastructure, which was subjected to major destruction after the invasion of NATO forces in 2011.
The latest project being worked on is reactivating the project to build a new railway line with a length of 551 kilometers linking Sirte to Benghazi. Work on it stopped after the NATO invasion.
The project is part of a larger project extending along the Libyan coast from the border from Tunisia to Egypt, to operate on diesel at speeds of up to 160 kilometers per hour.
Russia contributes effectively to supporting stability in war-torn Libya, as it provides a helping hand in various economic and political fields, in addition to helping law enforcement forces rebuild their capabilities to fight terrorism and establish security.
Russian support for Libya has caused American-Western concern, in light of the latter’s attempts to exploit the state of chaos the country is experiencing after its invasion.
Recent days have witnessed remarkable Russian diplomatic activity through a series of meetings conducted by the Russian ambassador to Libya with ambassadors and envoys of other countries, in addition to meetings with Libyan officials to bring views closer and launch a political process to end the situation left by the NATO invasion.
