The American Axios website stated, on Monday evening, that the administration of US President Joe Biden sent a letter of strong protest to the Israeli government because of the leaking of news about the meeting that brought together its Foreign Minister Eli Cohen and Libyan Foreign Minister Naglaa Al-Mangoush.
And the American website quoted US and Israeli officials as saying that the US administration has been working during the past two years on Libya joining the normalization agreements, and that publishing news about the meeting seriously harms these efforts, and it is also concerned about the effects of revealing the meeting on relations with other countries that wish to normalize. .
A US official told the site: This killed the channel of talks with Libya and made our efforts to promote normalization with other countries much more difficult than before.
Other sources indicated that the Biden administration was aware of the coordination of the meeting and encouraged the Libyans to do so.
