Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

On Saturday, Libya’s Parliament-designated Prime Minister, Osama Hammad, met with Chadian President Mahamat Idriss Déby to discuss the implementation of a major international highway connecting Libya, Egypt, and Chad.

This ambitious infrastructure project has gained significant traction, with Egypt offering to finance the endeavor, contingent on Libya’s approval and assurances of security for the companies involved.

President Déby warmly welcomed Prime Minister Hammad and expressed deep appreciation for the visit.

He also extended gratitude to Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar and the Libyan Armed Forces for their critical logistical support in securing the shared borders between Libya and Chad. This cooperation is vital in combating illegal migration and organized crime, which threaten regional stability.

During their discussions, President Déby lauded the progress made in recent ministerial meetings on transportation and infrastructure. He expressed Chad’s readiness to collaborate on the implementation of security and economic agreements that will serve the mutual interests of both nations.

On his part, Prime Minister Hammad underscored the historical ties between Libya and Chad, emphasizing the enduring bonds that unite their peoples. He reiterated the Libyan government’s commitment to deepening these relations and strengthening cooperation across various sectors.

He also highlighted the importance of the proposed international highway, recognizing it as a strategic initiative that will yield significant economic benefits for Libya, Chad, and Egypt. The project is expected to enhance cross-border trade and contribute to the development of the region, particularly as Libya continues to advance its infrastructure.

The international highway is not just a road—it’s a symbol of the growing economic and political collaboration between Libya, Chad, and Egypt. The project is seen as a critical step towards regional integration, offering a more secure and efficient route for trade and transport across North Africa.

Egypt’s offer to finance the highway reflects its strategic interest in improving regional connectivity and securing its borders with Libya and Chad. For Libya, this project presents an opportunity to diversify its economy by becoming a key transit hub between North and Sub-Saharan Africa. Chad, too, stands to benefit from improved access to Mediterranean markets, potentially unlocking new economic opportunities.
