- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
Greece is planning to reopen its embassy in Libya at the start of 2017, Foreign Minister Nikos Kotzias said on Monday, during a visit to the country’s capital, Tripoli.
“In December we’ll send a technical commission to review the issues that must be resolved – water, electricity etc – and at the start of 2017 we will appoint an ambassador to Libya,” he told journalists at a joint press conference with his Libyan counterpart Mohamed Taha Siala.
Kotzias explained that the embassy is “at a very good spot compared to other embassies”, between Libya’s Supreme Court and a large police station which will translate into increased security.
