South Korean Prime Minister Han Duk-soo said that his country, through its membership in the UN Security Council, will continue to support Libya’s position to achieve tangible stability on its territory.
This came during a meeting conducted by Han with a member of the Libyan Presidential Council, Musa Al-Koni, on the sidelines of the African-Korean summit held in the capital, Seoul.
The two sides discussed ways to develop prospects for cooperation between Libya and South Korea economically and in the field of capacity building.
Details of the meeting were broadcast by the Libyan Al-Wasat TV.
During the meeting, the two parties stressed the need to coordinate Korean-African efforts in the field of investment and development.
Han confirmed that his country is completing the necessary arrangements with the Libyan side for its embassy to begin its work from Tripoli with its entire staff.
In September 2023, South Korea extended a humanitarian aid package of $2 million to Libya.
The contribution was dispatched through the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) and the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.
The United Nations mission in Libya (UNSMIL) has reached an agreement with key actors in the Libyan arena to draft and develop a code of conduct to regulate cooperation and interaction between security and military institutions.
Stephanie Khouri, Acting Head of UNSMIL and Deputy Special Representative of the Secretary-General, chaired all the workshop sessions.
They discussed the proposed draft of the code of conduct, which aims to establish clear rules for cooperation among the various parties to ensure the security and stability of the state.
Khouri expressed optimism that this agreement would open new avenues for dialogue and cooperation, stating that “good governance requires well-organized and effective security institutions to support the rule of law and achieve the well-being of citizens.”
