S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 The charg\u00e9 d\u2019affaires of the Embassy of Libya in Brazil, Osama Sawan (center, picture above<\/em>), visited the Arab Brazilian Chamber of Commerce<\/a><\/strong>\u2019s office in S\u00e3o Paulo this Thursday (28). \u201cWe want to follow on the agreements we’ve already signed. We see Brazil as a great power that leads Latin America,\u201d said Sawan in interview to ANBA.<\/p>\n

The diplomat started working in the embassy in Brazil last January and said he has seen some progress in the bilateral relations with his country, whose elections are going to be defined in a meeting at the League of the Arab States. When talking about the role that Brazilian companies have played at construction in Libya, the diplomat said he hopes the Brazilian government collaborates with the Libyan people acting at the reconstruction of the country.<\/p>\n

According to him, the embassy is fostering actions such as bringing Libyan entrepreneurships to Brazil. \u201cWe have to promote meetings between Brazilian and Libyan entrepreneurships. That is why I\u2019m at the Arab Brazilian Chamber today,\u201d stated Sawan, who has been in touch with Libyan Ministry of Economy to start organizing the arrival of a delegation to Brazil.<\/p>\n

Among the areas of investments, Sawan highlights that Libya searchers for infrastructure, construction and agribusiness. \u201cWe are an agricultural country. We have to advance in technology in this sector,\u201d he said, stressing that Libya is an important consumer of Brazilian meat.<\/p>\n

The diplomat also stated that Libya is strategic for the commerce between Brazil and other Arab and North African countries. \u201cLibya is a very rich country. It has resources such as oil and gas, and a 2,000-thousand-kilometer coast at the Mediterranean Sea. It is a bridge between the South and North regions. It has ports with good structure that may be used for commerce and exports,\u201d added Sawan.<\/p>\n
