U.S. Congressional Delegation Visits Libya

HeadlineSep 30, 2011

The fighting in Libya comes amidst a visit from a delegation of U.S. congressional leaders. Speaking in Tripoli, Republican Sen. John McCain of Arizona said the United States is eager to do business in post-Gaddafi Libya.

Sen. John McCain: “American investors are more than eager to come and invest here in Libya. And we hope that and believe that they will be given an opportunity to do so, and it’s pretty clear that as long as fighting is going on it will be more difficult to attract that investment.”
