The U.S. Embassy in Libya said today in a statement that it welcomes the announcement of Libya’s National Oil Corporation (NOC) concerning lifting force majeure nationwide and resumed its vital work on behalf of all Libyans, while ensuring in cooperation with the United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) that revenues are not misappropriated but rather preserved for the benefit of the Libyan people.
The Embassy said it commends the efforts of all Libyan parties to facilitate NOC operations, adding that it will continue to support financial transparency in Libya and, through UN-led dialogue, a common understanding among Libyans on an equitable distribution of oil and gas revenues.
