The agreements Saturday, including one on economic and trade cooperation, were signed in Moscow by Deputy Prime Minister Oleg Davydov and Libya's Energy Minister, Abdullah Salem al-Badri.
Economic contacts between Russia and Libya have cooled in recent years because of Libya's debt to the former Soviet Union, amounting to $2.4 billion.
The problem was resolved after Libya recognized Russia as the Soviet Union's legal successor, Davydov said, adding that Saturday's agreements will help restore economic and cultural ties.
Such ties, however, are also affected by international sanctions against Libya, such as a ban on supplies of oil-refining equipment, he noted.
"We fully support Libya's striving to work to have the sanctions lifted," Davydov said, describing the sanctions as "having no particularly firm basis."
Davydov told Interfax that the documents signed Saturday provide for projects worth about $1.5 billion. Russian companies will help build oil and gas pipelines, power stations and electricity transmission lines in Libya, he said.
A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
