Monday 24,Febr-2024 {HMC} Somali President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud landed in Tripoli, Libya, on Sunday for an official visit to enhance bilateral ties.
Senior Libyan officials greeted the president and his delegation at the airport, praising both nations for their longstanding commitment to a strong relationship.
President Mohamud is set to meet with Libyan Presidential Council President Mohamed Yunus Al-Menfi to discuss regional developments and shared interests. Their talks will likely focus on security, political cooperation, efforts to combat trafficking, and the repatriation of Somali youth held under harsh conditions in Libyan prisons.
Somali government, in partnership with the International Organization for Migration, recently rescued hundreds of Somali migrants from trafficking networks and repatriated them to Somalia.
Since 2014, Libya has become a major transit point for migrants from Africa and the Middle East who are trying to get to Europe to flee instability and violence.
