Libya-Iraq diplomatic ties restored
Libya has restored full diplomatic relations with Iraq and plans to send an ambassador to Baghdad more than eight years after cutting off ties, Iraq's deputy foreign minister said yesterday.
"There was a delegation that came here, and they said that this decision is under discussion at the foreign ministry in Libya and this step will be taken soon, and they took that step yesterday," Labid Abbawi told AFP.
Abbawi was referring to a visit to Baghdad by then Libyan interim premier Mahmud Jibril in October.
