French Ambassador to Libya Mostafa Mihraje extended an invitation to Deputy Chairman of the Libyan Presidential Council, Mussa Al-Koni, to attend the International Humanitarian Conference for Sudan and its Neighbours. The invitation was well-received by Al-Koni, who acknowledged the significant impact of the conflict in Sudan on the security situation in Libya. He emphasized the importance of coordinating efforts with international partners to address the ongoing humanitarian crisis in the region.

According to a statement released by the Libyan council, Al-Koni expressed his commitment to participating in the conference, recognizing it as an opportunity to engage with stakeholders and mobilize support for humanitarian assistance. The ‘International Humanitarian Conference for Sudan and its Neighbours’ is scheduled to take place in Paris on 15 April 2024, coinciding with the one-year anniversary of the conflict in Sudan. The conference aims to bring together government officials, international organizations, and aid agencies to discuss and develop strategies to respond to the humanitarian needs of Sudan and its neighbouring countries.

The invitation from the French Ambassador underscores the importance of international cooperation in addressing complex humanitarian crises. By convening key stakeholders and decision-makers, the conference provides a platform for dialogue and collaboration to enhance the humanitarian response in the region. Al-Koni’s participation represents Libya’s continued commitment to supporting efforts to alleviate the suffering of those affected by conflict and displacement.

The conflict in Sudan has had far-reaching consequences, not only within the country itself but also in neighbouring states like Libya. The spillover effects of the violence have exacerbated existing challenges, including food insecurity, displacement, and limited access to essential services. By participating in the International Humanitarian Conference, Al-Koni aims to advocate for a coordinated and sustainable approach to addressing these urgent humanitarian needs.

The conference will address critical issues such as access to humanitarian assistance, protection of civilians, and the promotion of peace and stability in the region. Participants will have the opportunity to share best practices, exchange information, and mobilize resources to support the humanitarian response in Sudan and its neighbouring countries. By fostering collaboration and solidarity among stakeholders, the conference seeks to strengthen international support for ongoing relief efforts and long-term recovery initiatives.

As the Deputy Chairman of the Libyan Presidential Council, Al-Koni plays a crucial role in advocating for the needs of his country and the broader region. His participation in the International Humanitarian Conference reflects Libya’s commitment to promoting peace, stability, and development in the face of complex challenges. By engaging with international partners and attending events like the conference in Paris, Al-Koni demonstrates his dedication to finding sustainable solutions to the humanitarian crisis affecting Sudan and its neighbours.

Overall, the invitation from the French Ambassador and Al-Koni’s participation in the upcoming conference underscore the importance of international cooperation and solidarity in addressing humanitarian crises. By working together and leveraging collective expertise and resources, stakeholders can make significant progress in alleviating the suffering of vulnerable populations and building a more secure and resilient future for Sudan and its neighbouring countries.
