Turkish foreign and defense ministries and intelligence will soon work with US counterparts on Libya, Turkey’s top diplomat said on Thursday.

Speaking at a webinar with the US-based Turkish American National Steering Committee, Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said President Recep Tayyip Erdogan offered his US counterpart Donald Trump to work together in Libya and Trump took it positively.

“We received instructions to work together,” with US counterparts, which “is important for the stability of the region and future of Libya,” said the minister.

“We would like to further expand our cooperation areas,” he added.

His remarks came a day after Libyan Prime Minister Fayez al-Sarraj welcomed Cavusoglu, Treasury and Finance Minister Berat Albayrak, and National Intelligence Organization head Hakan Fidan in Tripoli.
