**Analysis**
The text appears to discuss the economic and political sanctions imposed by the United States on Libya, including the prohibition of exports of spare parts and technological equipment, as well as the disruption of civil wireless communication and the restriction on Libyan students studying certain subjects in the US. This suggests that the primary focus of the text is on the economic and political relations between the two countries.
