Libya’s Prime Minister Abdulhamid Dbeibeh is making his first visit to Turkey on Monday since taking office last month.
Turkey’s presidency said Dbeibeh will hold a two-day visit and that President Erdogan would chair the first meeting of the Turkey-Libya High Level Strategic Cooperation Council in Ankara.
The meeting would also discuss cooperation on energy and health as well as resumption of projects by Turkish companies that stopped due to the war.
Turkey has said that Turkish firms would take an active role in rebuilding the war-torn country.
A new unity government was sworn in on March 15 from two Libyan warring administrations resulting in a smooth transition of power after a decade of violent chaos.
Turkey had backed the Tripoli-based Government of National Accord (GNA) against the eastern-based Libyan National Army (LNA), which was supported by Russia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates and France.
Dbeibeh would visit Ankara with a team including 14 ministers, five deputy prime ministers, the chief of staff and other officials.
