5%. Tunisia, 11.06.2020 - Lana - Tunisia's exports of agricultural and food products to Libya until April 2020 decreased by 17.5%, according to the Tunisian Observatory of Agriculture. The observatory attributed in a statement on Tuesday, this decline mainly due to the turmoil that affected the trade exchanges due to the impact of the Corona pandemic and the restrictions imposed on international trade. The value of exports of sea products in the direction of Libya decreased by about 6.3 million dinars, and by 82.1% in comparison to 2019, and vegetables by 17.2%, at a value of 1.2 million dinars. Starting from last May, Tunisia had allowed restrictions on the supply of goods to Libya to be eased by allowing transporters and exporters to exchange goods at the border crossings level, without entering Tunisian territory for Libyans or entering Libyan lands for Tunisians. The activity of exporting and supplying goods has stopped completely since the middle of last March due to the fear that the epidemic will pass through people and goods. =Lana=
