Libyan Ambassador Visits Coggin College
Ambassador
Ali Suleiman Aujali of Libya spoke with Coggin College
students and faculty about his efforts to develop strong
relations between the United States and Libya. Ambassador
Aujali has worked to lift heavy sanctions in Libya
and re-establish international connections after 25
years of isolation from the U.S. Education
is especially important to the Ambassador. His
efforts have helped to triple the number of Libyan
students studying in Canada, and he hopes to achieve
the same with the U.S.
