London, 20 January 2021:
The Chairman of Libyan-Egyptian Chamber of Commerce Ibrahim al-Garary told Sky News Arabia that Egypt and Libya contemplate extending Egypt’s high-speed electric train – to be accomplished in two years – to Libya. The news was reported Monday (18 January) by Egypttoday.com
The railway stretches between Red Sea’s Ain Sokhna to the Mediterranean’s Alamein city. The line can be lengthened to Libya’s Benghazi through Egypt’s Saloum town, it reported.
Garari was reported as stating that the government of his country intends to invest in the project to boost its accomplishment rate. He added that the Libyan committee concerned with the matter will hold meetings with the Egyptian side next week. The meetings also consist of planning for the Libyan-Egyptian Economic Forum to be held in February.
