The Head of Libya’s Parliamentary Committee for Investigating Frozen Assets Abroad, Youssef Al-Agouri, has issued a firm warning to the United Kingdom and other countries over any unilateral moves to seize or dispose of Libya’s frozen financial assets. He stressed that such actions would constitute a clear violation of international law and UN Security Council resolutions.
Al-Agouri reaffirmed Libya’s strong rejection of any attempt by foreign governments to manage or redirect these frozen funds, describing it as an unacceptable and illegal interference in Libya’s sovereign affairs.
He called on all nations to respect Libya’s sovereignty and its right to preserve its national wealth, warning that any encroachment on these funds would be viewed as a serious breach that Libyans would not tolerate.
Al-Agouri assured that his committee is fully prepared to take all necessary legal and diplomatic measures to safeguard Libyan assets and prevent their misuse or exploitation under any pretext.
He concluded by urging friendly countries to adhere to international law and respect the decisions of the global community, which he said are essential for fostering mutually respectful bilateral relations and advancing shared interests.
