The Italian government has approved a draft law to ratify and implement a treaty enabling the transfer of convicted individuals between Italy and Libya. This agreement allows Libyan detainees in Italy to serve their sentences in their home country.

According to the Italian newspaper Italia Oggi, the Italian Council of Ministers approved the draft law on December 23, following a proposal by Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation Minister Antonio Tajani. The law formalizes the treaty between the Republic of Italy and the State of Libya, facilitating the transfer of individuals deprived of personal liberty.

High-Level Discussions Preceding the Decision
This landmark development follows discussions held in November during a visit by the Speaker of the Libyan House of Representatives, Ageela Saleh, to Rome. Saleh met with Italian Justice Minister Carlo Nordio to address the issue of Libyan prisoners detained in Italy.

On December 17, Libya’s Attorney General, Al-Siddiq Al-Sour, held talks with Italian judicial authorities in Rome to find solutions for Libyan detainees and pave the way for their repatriation.

Strengthening Bilateral Relations
The agreement underscores the growing cooperation between Italy and Libya, addressing the humanitarian and legal concerns of detainees while reinforcing bilateral ties. It reflects a mutual commitment to fostering judicial collaboration and respecting the rights of individuals.
