Therefore, I hope that (the embassy will reopen) soon," Bogdanov told reporters. The Russian Embassy in Libya was evacuated to neighboring Tunisia in 2014 over rising security concerns. During his visit to Moscow last year, the head of Libya's Government of National Unity, Abdul Hamid Dbeibah, expressed hope for an early reopening of the Russian diplomatic mission in the country. In March, the eastern-based Libyan House of Representatives elected Fathi Bashagha as prime minister, further deepening political division in the country.
