On Sunday, Presidential Council Head Mohamed Menfi received a formal correspondence from Chinese President Xi Jinping, delivered personally by his special envoy Liu Jian at the Council's HQ in Tripoli. 

The missive included an invitation for the upcoming China-Africa Forum, which will take place in China this September and highlighted several critical topics of mutual interest. 

Key among these was China's stance on the Gaza genocide, its call for a comprehensive international peace conference in the Middle East, and its unwavering support for the Palestinian cause, advocating for an independent Palestinian state and its recognition as a full member of the United Nations, according to the PC media office. 

In their meeting, envoy Jian provided Menfi with a detailed summary of the recently concluded Arab-China Forum.

Menfi underscored the deep historical relationship between Libya and China, as he renewed the call for the return of Chinese companies to Libya to resume halted projects and actively participate in reconstruction efforts.

Moreover, the PC head expressed profound gratitude for China's support to those affected by the catastrophic floods in Derna and the Green Mountain region, triggered by Storm Daniel in September 2023.
