The Libyan-American Business Day was held in Washington, D.C., with participation from a delegation representing Libya’s Government of National Unity (GNU) and over forty major U.S. companies spanning sectors such as oil and gas, renewable energy, healthcare, mining, electricity, telecommunications, transportation, and infrastructure.
The meetings focused on expanding economic cooperation between Libya and the United States, with an emphasis on opportunities for joint investment between the public and private sectors in both countries.
Among the attendees were Masad Boulos, Senior Advisor to the U.S. President and Special Envoy for Middle East Affairs, representatives from several U.S. government departments, and the President of the American Chamber of Commerce in Libya.
This event was held within the framework of the strategic economic partnership between the two nations and under the Trade and Investment Framework Agreement.
Masad Boulos, Senior Advisor to President Donald Trump for African and Middle Eastern Affairs, stated that he met with Libya’s Minister of Oil and Gas, Khalifa Abdelsadiq, and his accompanying delegation during their visit to the U.S. to discuss potential investment opportunities for American companies in Libya’s oil and gas sector.
In a post on his personal account on platform “X,” Boulos added that Libya is demonstrating a clear willingness to engage in economic partnerships, describing this approach as a practical model of commercial diplomacy.
