MOSCOW, November 28. /TASS/. Libya is hoping to achieve a breakthrough in relations with Russia to push them to the next level, said Mohammed Takala, head of Libya's High State Council.
"Through contacts like this, we are hoping to make a breakthrough in our relations and bring them to a potentially new and better level," he said at a meeting with Russian Federation Council Chairwoman Valentina Matviyenko.
Takala also said collaboration between the parliaments of the countries is important in strengthening their economic ties.
