Negotiations were held between Russian Ambassador to Libya Aidar Aganin and President of the Libyan Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Agriculture Mohammed Rayed, the press service of the Russian Foreign Ministry reported on March 4. .
During the negotiations, the parties discussed possible steps to intensify trade and economic relations, including the project to create a bilateral chamber of commerce and industry.
Recall that on November 27, 2023, a delegation of the Supreme State Council of Libya arrived in Russia at the invitation of the Chairwoman of the Federation Council of the Federal Assembly of Russia, Valentina Matvienko.
During the negotiations the parties discussed the issues of deepening Russian-Libyan cooperation in the political, trade and economic fields, as well as cooperation in the fields of science, education and technology.
On November 30, the Libyan delegation met with the Chairman of the State Duma (State Duma), Vyacheslav Volodin, the head of the International Affairs Committee of the State Duma, Leonid Slutsky, and the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, Special Representative of the President of the Russian Federation for the Middle East and African Countries Mikhail Bogdanov.
On December 1, a meeting took place between the delegation of the Supreme State Council of Libya and representatives of Russia. The meeting was attended by the head of the delegation, the president of the Supreme State Council, Muhammad Takala, the extraordinary and plenipotentiary ambassador of the State of Libya to the Russian Federation, Emhemed AE Almagravi, and the Russian ambassador to Libya, Aidar Aganin .
Let us also remember that in 2011 the United States began a NATO operation in Libya. As a result of this NATO operation in Libya, the internationally recognized head of the country, Muammar Gaddafi, was removed from power and the country descended into chaos and a series of civil wars.
After the NATO operation and the series of civil wars that followed, the prosperous African country became a hub for smuggling, slave trade and a transit point for migrants.
