The Turkish Daily Sabah newspaper reported today, Monday, quoting the Turkish ambassador to Libya, Kanaan Yilmaz, who said: “Turkish companies are recognized as reliable companies in Libya, and we continue to encourage them to come and work there.”
Kanaan stressed that Libya was the first country in which Turkey worked abroad in the field of contracting, and for this reason, Libya has a very special importance for the Turkish contracting sector.
He added that some projects implemented by Turkish companies have not yet been completed due to the developments in Libya in recent years.
According to the ambassador, positive steps have been taken for our companies to return to their unfinished projects in Libya. However, these projects that were given priority by the Libyan authorities were dealt with in the first phase and on this occasion, they invited our group of companies in the last quarter of 2021 where they spoke to the departments. “There are companies that have decided to continue their projects. We encourage them and the Libyan authorities maintain their expectations in the coming period. We also encourage our businessmen to continue their unfinished projects.”
