Statement by Palazzo Chigi on ITA Rome-Tripoli direct flight

24 July 2023

An ITA direct flight between Rome and Tripoli reopened this route over Libyan skies today, after a ten-year suspension. The flight, which also had Prime Minister Dabaiba on board, was a prelude to the new commercial route that will be opened this autumn. Following the International Conference on Development and Migration, this is another tangible sign of the direction the Italian Government wants relations with Libya and with States in the wider Mediterranean to move in.
