‏US Deputy Ambassador to the United Nations, Ambassador Jeffrey DiLaurentis, praised the Central Bank of Libya’s recent initiative to issue more detailed monthly statements, which would reduce suspicion among the leading factions and build public confidence in the bank.

‏These developments take place concurrently with a disappointing step back in reunification of the Central Bank of Libya.

‏DiLaurentis said: While we applauded the recent initiative of the Central Bank to release more detailed monthly statements, which should reduce suspicion among leadership factions and build public trust in the Bank, we are concerned that steps toward reunification have stalled amid reports the eastern-based branch is seeking to print currency abroad.
