Several Libyan political parties have firmly rejected the Trump administration’s efforts to deport migrants with criminal records from the United States to Libya, calling it “a blatant violation of Libya’s sovereignty.”
In a joint statement issued recently, the parties urged the Libyan authorities to officially declare their rejection of the proposed plan. The statement stressed that “Libya is not a testing ground for foreign policies, nor a dumping ground for the problems of other nations seeking solutions to their crises.”
The parties rejected any attempt to exploit Libya’s fragile security and economic conditions, noting that the country “has yet to recover from years of war and political instability.”
They further argued that describing Libya as a “safe third country” is a “glaring contradiction in both stance and rhetoric,” pointing out that the United States continues to issue annual travel warnings to its citizens against visiting Libya due to security risks.
They warned that any attempt by any party to pass such agreements with the United States or others “is a flagrant assault on our dignity, sovereignty, and national security.”
