The European Union has reiterated its support for Libya’s central and local institutions in efforts to strengthen governance, empower youth, and stimulate economic reform, including within the country’s vital energy sector.
In a statement posted on platform X on Sunday, the EU Ambassador to Libya, Nicola Orlando, said the bloc remains committed to promoting the rule of law and improving the business and investment climate across the country.
Orlando met with Libya’s Minister of Planning, Mohammed Al-Zidani, to present the EU’s strategic priorities for its partnership with Libya for the period 2025–2027. The two officials discussed the urgent need for a unified, sustainable, and transparent framework for government spending nationwide.
“The European Union stands ready to assist Libyan institutions in drafting a realistic and accountable framework to boost economic growth and provide support to families and businesses,” the ambassador said.
The announcement comes amid growing international calls for structural reform and economic stability in Libya, which continues to navigate a complex post-conflict transition.
