According to the Information Office of the President of the Council, the telephone call was also an occasion to discuss the importance of activating the Union of Arab Maghreb States for the countries of the region.
The President of the Council called for the revitalization of the Arab Maghreb Union and the resumption of its meetings.
In a statement issued by the Presidential Council, Al-Menfi stated that “Libya, as the current President of the Union, will do its utmost during the current period to achieve this objective in cooperation with its brothers and will soon extend an invitation to begin the meeting of the Arab Maghreb Union at various levels.”
