Mohamed al-Menfi

Mohamed Yunus al-Menfi (; born 3 March 1976) is a Libyan diplomat and politician. On 5 February 2021, he was chosen as the chairman of the Libyan Presidential Council at the Libyan Political Dialogue Forum. Previously, he had served as the Libyan Ambassador to Greece.

Ambassadorship Al-Menfi's period as ambassador in Athens was marked by a tense relationship between the GNA and the Greek government because of the Libyan (GNA)–Turkish accord on maritime boundaries. The row is part of a long-running dispute between Turkey and Greece over drilling rights in the Mediterranean. He was eventually expelled from Athens in December 2019.

2024 Central Bank Crisis and UNGA visit Al-Menfi controversially ousted the former governor of Libya's Central Bank, Sadiq Al-Kabir, in August 2024.

In his first interview with Western reporters a month later, he justified the ousting by citing that Kabir had been mismanaging the banks finances "without any form of accountability," and was "exploiting the state of division" between East and West Libya."

A bilateral deal struck between al-Menfi's Tripoli government and Haftar's Tobruk government on 25 September 2024, agreed upon an interim governor and financial committee for the bank. Al-Menfi described the deal as crucial in "sparing the capital, Tripoli, from a certain war that would directly target the central bank". The deal was brokered by the UN mission in Libya and is yet to be ratified by the country's Eastern and Western government representative bodies, as of September 2024.
