In a meeting with the representative of the Presidential Council, Mossa Al-Koni, Paul Soler expressed his country's readiness to cooperate with the relevant authorities in Libya and provide it with the logistical capabilities to perform its tasks in securing the borders.
Paul Soler also stressed the need to continue consultation with countries interested in Libya in cooperation with political parties in order to reach concrete agreements that lead to holding elections whose results are acceptable to all participants, in addition to supporting efforts aimed at reconstruction, especially the southern region.
