Italian Ambassador to Tripoli
Giuseppe Perrone said Tuesday that Italy was the first Western
country to reopen its embassy in Libya since 2014 due to its
lead role in helping the North African nation. "There is always
a situation of risk, but considering our special role in Libya,
we have decided to make this political investment," Perrone told
ANSA after presenting his credentials to Libyan Premier Fayez
al-Serraj. Perrone had talks with Serraj and the Libyan foreign
minister, who thanked Italy for reopening the embassy.
