ROME (ITALY) (ITALPRESS/MNA) – “Our goal is on the one hand to relaunch collaborations that have been at a standstill for a long time and on the other to expand collaborations that have always continued and above all to explore together new forms of cooperation. I wanted to be here in Tripoli today to reiterate the commitment of Italy and the Italian Government to be alongside Libya and its people in this new reconstruction and development phase. Libya represents a major economic partner for Italy, our excellent trade relations are proof of this”. This was stated by the Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, at the Italy-Libya Business Forum in Tripoli. “We consider the relationship with Libya a priority for Italy and Europe. We are convinced that the deep cooperation that binds us has not yet expressed its full potential. The relationships between our companies have never been interrupted and there is a common interest in leaping in quality, even compared to what we have done so far”, Meloni explained. Furthermore, “Italy is for Libya the privileged gateway to one of the largest energy markets in the world, the European one, made up of 500 million consumers. This offers us a double opportunity: to work to become a hub for energy flows between Italy, Africa, and Europe, a true supply and distribution hub and to be a pivot for the conjunction and connection of new interconnections, which must be infrastructural and economic, to which we are also giving voice through the Mattei Plan for Africa”, concluded the Prime Minister.
