He considered this Summit as a distinguished opportunity to bridge perspectives, expressing President Kaïs Saïed's appreciation for the efforts of the President of the Republic of Congo, Denis Sassou Nguesso, at the helm of the High-Level Committee of the African Union on Libya. This appreciation reflects the commitment to ensuring the success of the Libyan national reconciliation process and securing all elements for regional security and stability, added the Tunisian Foreign Ministry.
