On December 23, 2025, Atsushi Sunami, President of the Sasakawa Peace Foundation (SPF), and his delegation visited Tripoli, the capital of Libya, where they were welcomed by H.E. Mr. Abdullah Allafi, Vice President of the Libyan Presidential Council; Abdullah Hameed, President of the Libyan Peace Institute; and a member of the House of Representatives (HOR). During the visit, they exchanged views on Libya’s security situation and the general elections to be held for the first time since the ceasefire agreement.
In January 2025, SPF signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Libyan Peace Institute (LPI), which was established to promote peacebuilding and national reconciliation in Libya. President Sunami also held discussions with senior LPI officials on specific areas of cooperation. LPI representatives expressed their expectations for SPF’s continued contribution to peace and stability in Libya.
