Algeria to Reopen Border Crossing with Libya
Arab World
Algiers - Boualem Goumrassa
Algerian Foreign Minister Sabri Boukadoum has said his country was finalizing logistical and technical preparations for the reopening of the Debdeb-Ghadames border crossing with Libya. Boukadoum and Libyan Minister of Economy and Trade Mohamed Al-Hawij held on Saturday a press conference on the sidelines of the Algerian-Libyan Economic Forum. The two countries are also finalizing the reopening of the maritime link between Algiers and Tripoli for the transportation of goods, Boukadoum said. He renewed "Algeria's full support to the efforts of the Libyan authorities, represented by the Presidential Council and the Government of National Unity in order to restore political and security stability in Libya, achieve national reconciliation among all the Libyan people, and unify and strengthen state institutions." He called for “holding free and fair general elections that preserve the Libyan territory’s integrity and unity, and put Libya back on the track of reconstruction, prosperity, and growth.” "Algeria has hosted all the Libyan warring parties, from across the political spectrum, to bridge differences and find consensual solutions that the Libyans themselves must implement to protect their country from expansionism and foreign interference," he added. Boukadoum reiterated that Algeria has taken measures to provide a legal and institutional framework for all businesspersons from both countries to implement projects for the benefit of the Libyan and Algerian people.
