New vaccine city + Egypt pushes for Libya resolution
Two topics reigned supreme on the nation’s airwaves last night: Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly’s visit to state-run Vacsera’s Vaccine City in Sixth of October — set to be up and running in November, as well as Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry’s participation in a ministerial-level meeting of Libya’s neighbors in Algeria, aimed at reaching a political resolution to the conflict between Tripoli’s unity government and eastern Libyan leader Khalifa Haftar. We delve into the nuances of both in this morning’s Covid Watch (above) and Diplomacy (below) sections.
