Minister of Finance of the Government of National Unity (GNU), Khaled Al-Mabrouk, has met during his visit to Washington with the Deputy Assistance Secretary of the US Treasury for Africa and the Middle East, Eric Mayer, the Ministry of Finance said on Thursday.

Al-Mabrouk was participating in the Spring Meetings of the Board of Governors of the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund that wrapped up on April 24 in Washington.
