The Memorandum of Understanding on Commercial Matters between Italy and Libya was signed on May 25, 1982, with the objective of strengthening commercial cooperation between the two countries. It fits within a broader context of cultural, technical, scientific, and economic cooperation, with particular emphasis on promoting trade and industrial exchanges.
The protocol commits both parties to facilitate commercial and industrial activities through bilateral cooperation in various sectors such as infrastructure construction, energy, trade, and industry. This agreement enables Italian and Libyan businesses to operate more easily in each other's markets, with mutual support in terms of supply and investment.
Furthermore, the protocol provides for the use of commercial facilitation mechanisms, such as the creation of official communication channels and the organization of joint trade fairs and commercial events, to promote production capabilities and products from both countries.
The Memorandum of Understanding entered into force on May 25, 1982, and, while it has no specified expiration date, it continues to apply and may be renewed or amended through further agreements or negotiations between the parties.
