EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Federica Mogherini on Friday said that the pan-European body will provide a €100 million aid to Libya.
In a meeting with Libyan Prime Minister designate Fayez al Sarraj in Tunisia, Mogherini said the aid would be used in the reconstruction process.
The move came after rival parties signed a UN-brokered agreement to form a national unity government on December 17.
Libya’s internationally recognized government – that had been forced to flee from the capital Tripoli to the eastern city of Tobruk – last month came to an agreement with Islamist-backed rebels known as the Libyan Dawn, who had seized the capital and set up an alternative parliament in 2014.
It is hoped the agreement will help end a four-year civil war in the country and can provide Libyans with a united front against Daesh, who have taken control of large swathes of territory in the country.
