During a visit that the Prime Minister of the Government of Libyan National Unity Abdul Hamid Dbeibah made to Malta on Wednesday afternoon, Prime Minister Robert Abela claimed that world peace and stability are crucial when there is currently an international climate with great challenges that is constantly changing.
“The challenges come from climate change, Russia’s aggression against Ukraine, and the increases in energy and food prices are leaving their consequences and the highest price is being paid. the people”, said Prime Minister Abela.
Despite the smallness of our country, Malta will not be indifferent, the Prime Minister repeated. “We will continue to speak in favor of peace and dialogue so that conflicts can be resolved peacefully”, said Dr Abela. Regarding the case of Libya, which in recent days has again experienced fighting due to political conflicts, the Prime Minister said that he is aware that these circumstances are challenging. But he expressed his opinion that the future of the Libyan people and the solutions that should be found, can be found by the Libyan people themselves, without any external influence.
He stressed that Malta remains a strategic partner of Libya. Both through the history between the two countries, the geographical position as well as the good relations between the two peoples. He said that Libya will continue to find Malta pushing forward the cause of Libya as Malta will sit in the Security Council of the United Nations.
During the meetings they had, the two delegations identified common areas for the two countries on which more collaboration could be done. Key among them are the policy on climate change, energy, education and health, among others. These bilateral co-operations continue to strengthen the good relations that the two countries have always had.
