Kamel Maghur

Died in 2002

Kamel Hassan al-Maghur was born in 1935 in Tripoli, the son of a nationalist leader. A jurist trained in Cairo, he had a leading diplomatic career: Minister of Foreign Affairs of Libya, ambassador to the United Nations, counsel for his country before the International Court of Justice in the border dispute with Chad. A short-story writer in parallel, he wrote in a precise and nostalgic style. He died in Tripoli in 2002, respected in the two worlds he had served.
