The United States wants to see Libya emerge as a stable, unified, and prosperous nation, US Chargé d’Affaires in Libya Jeremy Berndt said in an interview with Libya Al-Ahrar. He stressed that lasting stability is the foundation for economic growth, investment, and strong bilateral partnerships.

Berndt made clear that there are no official discussions within the US government about lifting the freeze on Libya’s sovereign assets. Instead, Washington’s focus is on creating the conditions for long-term cooperation, institutional unity, and economic progress.

He highlighted the recent visit of Masad Boulos, Senior Adviser to the US President for Middle East and Africa Affairs, to Tripoli and Benghazi as a turning point in strengthening US-Libya relations. The visit, he said, opened new avenues for trade and investment, particularly in the energy sector.

Recent agreements reflect this momentum. These include a $235 million contract with Hill International to boost natural gas output through the Turkibin A and E projects, and a memorandum of understanding with ExxonMobil to conduct offshore exploration studies. The US is also working with ConocoPhillips to develop the Waha Oil fields, with the goal of doubling current production.

Berndt described these projects as part of a strategic vision to deepen economic ties and build sustainable partnerships that benefit both countries. He emphasized that a stable Libya is crucial not only for its citizens but also for regional security and international trade routes.

His remarks come as Libya remains divided between rival administrations in the east and west. Washington sees economic engagement and institutional cooperation as key drivers to overcome political fragmentation and move toward a unified state.

“Libya’s stability matters,” Berndt said. “Our commitment is to work with Libyan partners to ensure peace, prosperity, and national unity.”
