Benghazi, Libya: The Chinese government's emergency humanitarian supplies for Libya arrived in the eastern city of Benghazi on the 24th. Liu Jian, Charg é d'affaires a.i. of the Chinese Embassy in Libya, Khalid, Charg é d'affaires a.i. of the Libyan Embassy in China, and Omar, Secretary General of the Libyan Red Crescent Society, went to the airport to welcome and attend the handover ceremony. Liu Jian stated that although China and Libya are thousands of miles apart, in the 45 years since the establishment of diplomatic relations, the two peoples have always been in the same boat, watching and helping each other. After the flood, China immediately activated the emergency humanitarian assistance mechanism and announced the provision of emergency humanitarian assistance to Libya. The total weight of Chinese government aid materials delivered today exceeds 90 tons, including tents, blankets, life jackets, water purification devices and monitors, and ultrasound diagnostic systems. Previously, the Chinese Red Cross Society had provided emergency cash assistance of $200000 to the Libyan Red Crescent Society. I hope that China's assistance can help Libya overcome the impact of the disaster and restore normal order in the disaster area as soon as possible. China is willing to maintain communication and coordination with the Libyan side, and support the Libyan flood relief and post disaster reconstruction. The Libyan side stated that the selfless assistance and strong support provided by the Chinese government can be seen as timely assistance, highlighting the traditional friendship and deep friendship between the two countries. The Libyan government and people deeply appreciate this. I believe that with the help of friendly countries such as China, Libya will definitely be able to overcome the floods and rebuild its homeland. (New News Agency)
