Mohammed Takala has commenced a two-day visit to Mauritania to improve relations between Libya and Mauritania, particularly in parliamentary cooperation. His discussions with President Mohamed Ould Meguett highlighted the significance of the Maghreb Union and urged cooperation among Maghreb countries. The ongoing division in the HCS between Takala and rival Khalid Al-Mishri continues to pose challenges.
Mohammed Takala, competing for the Head of the High Council of State (HCS) against rival Khalid Al-Mishri, is visiting Mauritania for two days. The visit, as reported by official sources in Nouakchott, aims to enhance bilateral relations between Libya and Mauritania. Footage of the visit was published by the Mauritanian Parliament, illustrating Takala’s reception by President Mohamed Ould Meguett.
During the discussions, Takala and Ould Meguett focused on strengthening parliamentary relations and emphasized the importance of the Maghreb Union. They acknowledged the need for collaboration among the Maghreb nations to advance their common interests, despite existing challenges. Ould Meguett also noted that the Mauritanian-Libyan relations are a vital foundation for achieving the goals of the Maghreb Union.
For seven months, the HCS has been divided between Takala and Al-Mishri. This contention has arisen since the inaugural elections due to conflicting judicial rulings favoring both candidates. The ongoing political situation highlights the complexities surrounding governance and the future of the High Council of State in Libya.
In conclusion, Mohammed Takala’s visit to Mauritania represents a significant step towards strengthening the ties between Libya and Mauritania, with a clear focus on enhancing parliamentary collaboration and the importance of the Maghreb Union. The persistent rivalry between Takala and Al-Mishri underscores the challenges faced by the HCS, emphasizing the necessity for unity among Maghreb nations to overcome political obstacles.
