On Sunday 5 June, Her Majesty\u2019s Ambassador to Libya, Caroline Hurndall, formally reopened the British Embassy in Tripoli, which had been closed since 2014. The reopening of the Embassy underlines the UK\u2019s continuing commitment to develop closer cooperation with Libya and to work with Libyans and the UN towards a durable political settlement for Libya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Building a Stable and Prosperous Libya – British Embassy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Her Majesty, the British Queen, has a historical and personal connection to Libya. The Queen\u2019s second ever-state visit was to Tobruk, where she visited the War Cemetery commemorating British and Commonwealth soldiers who fought and died in North Africa in the Second World War. There she met Libya\u2019s former King, Idris, who invested in Her the Order of Idris the First. This represented an essential step in a vibrant and enduring relationship between our two countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her Majesty\u2019s Ambassador to Libya said<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Although the Embassy is based in Tripoli<\/a>, this demonstrates our commitment to the whole of Libya. I am proud that our work touches the lives of Libyans across the whole country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If Libya is to fulfil her political and economic potential, Libya\u2019s leaders must continue to implement the October Ceasefire Agreement and work together to pursue compromise and cooperation. The people of Libya deserve this.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
