PM Aldabaiba and Governor Issa discuss priority economic and financial issues
Tripoli based Libyan Prime Minister, Abd Alhamid Aldabaiba, and Central Bank of Libya (CBL) Governor Issa, discussed what the government described as priority economic and financial issues during a meeting at the CBL's Tripoli headquarters yesterday. Reducing corruption and enhancing transparency At the beginning of the meeting, the Prime Minister commended the launch of the new 'Your Instant Salary' state-sector salary payroll system, developed in cooperation between the CBL and the Ministry of Finance. He emphasized that work is underway to complete and develop it, considering it an important tool for reducing corruption and enhancing transparency. 1.1 million salaries out of 2 million reconciled For its part, the Central Bank confirmed that the number of state-sector salaries transferred to it through the new system has exceeded two million employees, while the number of reconciliations completed to date has reached approximately 1.1 million employees. Foreign currency stability The meeting also reviewed the CBL's efforts to control the sale of foreign currency (FX) by regulating the licensing of FX companies. In this context, Aldabaiba directed the need to enhance joint coordination within the credit system to determine market needs and contribute to controlling FX demand to achieve financial stability (of the Libyan dinar against the hard currencies). Prioritising industrial and production financing rather than consumer financing The meeting emphasized the adoption of a joint strategy to prioritize industrial and production financing and limit the expansion of consumer financing, thus contributing to supporting the national economy and stimulating sustainable job opportunities. LD 140 billion e-payments up to July 2025 Regarding digital transformation, the Central Bank of Libya revealed that the value of electronic transactions exceeded 140 billion dinars in just seven months, stressing that this expansion reflects citizens' confidence in electronic payment systems and reinforces the government's efforts to reduce reliance on paper money.

Tripoli based Libyan PM Aldabaiba completely rejects normalization with Israel – the Palestinian cause is an integral part of the Libyan conscience
In an interview with the Asharq Al-Awsat (the Middle East) newspaper yesterday, Tripoli based Libyan Prime Minister, Abd Alhamid Aldabaiba, said he completely rejects normalisation with Israel. He added that the Palestinian cause is an integral part of the Libyan conscience, and that the rumours about Libya accepting forcibly displaced Palestinians are merely unreliable leaks. Regarding breaking Libya's political impasse, Aldabaiba said he held multiple discussions with the UN envoy regarding a roadmap leading to elections that would renew the legitimacy of institutions, such as Parliament (the House of Representatives – HoR), which must be the foundation of the next political phase. He said the current institutional confusion is the result of the HoR's performance and unilateral decisions, and that the solution lies in an elected legislative body, a position understood by Libya's partners and the international community. Aldabaiba said he had discussed with the United States support for the electoral process and strengthening the economic partnership, with Donald Trump's Advisor Boulos expressing his full support. Mechanisms for facilitating the electoral process were also discussed, as were the US$ 60 billion in investments offered to stimulate the economy and diversify sources of income. This is a strategic project far removed from political manipulation. The Tripoli based Libyan PM said he believes that unifying the army is possible after comprehensive national elections, which will contribute to ending the military division. Dismantling militias is a national priority for rebuilding the state. Three paths have been proposed for armed groups, including integrating those who wish to join the Ministries of Defence and Interior. He stressed that the relationship with Turkey is strategic and based on respect and common interests and is witnessing continuous development. Likewise, there is a gradual improvement in the relationship with Russia. Finally, he emphasised that electoral laws must be fair and enforceable, not tailored to individuals. He called on the obstructing parties to implement them immediately to enable the people to choose their leaders.
