Tripoli:The capital of Libya is hosting a meeting for ministers from the African Union's Committee of Ten (C10) on October 10-11, focusing on United Nations Security Council reform. This gathering is part of ongoing efforts to solidify Africa's stance on achieving fair representation on the Security Council.
According to Libyan News Agency, Libya's Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Taher El-Sonni, announced that preparations for this ministerial meeting are underway.
