Al-Qatrani: Security is Key to Libya’s Stability

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The Libyan Parliament-designated Deputy Prime Minister, Ali Al-Qatrani asserted on Saturday that “security is the linchpin for progress, the groundwork for the return of stability, and the launch of reconstruction.” He highlighted the importance of “imposing security, reinstating the state’s dignity, and combating various forms of crime in the country.”

Al-Qatrani further acknowledged the Criminal Investigation Department as one of the key entities “heavily relied upon in maintaining security, restoring the state’s dignity, and eliminating various types of crimes.”

He detailed the department’s significant role, in collaboration with the Libyan National Army (LNA), under the command of Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar, during the war against terrorism. Al-Qatrani further praised their post-war solidarity with various security and police forces, in solving complex criminal cases, stating that “crime is almost non-existent, with crime rates nearing zero.”

Al-Qatrani commended the “efforts of those managing and belonging to the department,” urging them to “exert more effort to ensure the continuation of progress and reconstruction, thanks to the security state being experienced by all.”

He stressed the Libyan government stands firmly behind this department and other security and police forces, calling upon those managing and partaking in the department to “make further effort to guarantee the ongoing cycle of growth and reconstruction, thanks to the current security situation that everyone is enjoying.”

Notably, the Libyan Parliament-designated Prime Minister, Osama Hammad raised concerns regarding the “unrestricted movement of certain foreign diplomats in Libya, under governmental jurisdiction, without obtaining the necessary permissions from relevant authorities.”

In an official statement, the government revealed it has been “observing certain individuals and foreign diplomatic and non-diplomatic organizations freely roaming within cities and villages, in the south and east, without securing approval from the Libyan government. Instead, these entities have merely been coordinating with the outgoing government.” This is in reference to the internationally recognised, and Tripoli-based, Government of National Unity (GNU).

The government remarked that “such actions are contradictory to diplomatic and political norms, practised both locally and internationally, and infringe on our national sovereignty.”

Standing firm on the principle of sovereignty, the Libyan government issued a warning to all political figures, diplomats, missions, and international institutions to “refrain from entering or roaming in Libyan cities, or conducting any meetings or activities of any kind or purpose, without acquiring the necessary permits from the Libyan government.” It affirmed that it would not “hesitate to take all necessary legal and security measures against those violating these warnings, including the application of the law in a deterrent and firm manner, which could extend to requesting the lifting of immunity for those subject to accountability.”

The government appealed to all relevant entities, including the internal security apparatus, intelligence agencies, and security directorates in cities, to “take all necessary security measures to ensure the preservation of the security of the Libyan state, and the integrity of its territories.” It also urged these entities to “deal firmly with anyone infringing upon Libyan sovereignty with such actions, and to take all necessary measures in this regard.”

Concluding its statement, it stressed that it “remains committed to international and diplomatic norms, treaties, and protocols.” It expressed its “eagerness to maintain friendships and partnerships with all countries and international institutions. As long as these relationships align with international principles and norms that ensure respect for state sovereignty, and in accordance with the principle of reciprocity.”
