History

During the United States invasion of Grenada, Libya had 3 or 4 troops present.^[3]

In 1982, at the time, Grenadian president Maurice Bishop wrote a letter to the Libyan leader, Colonel Muammar Gaddafi, asking if it would be possible to borrow six million US dollars as a soft loan to complete the runway at Point Salines International Airport (now known as Maurice Bishop International Airport),^[4] to which Gaddafi agreed to.
