Libyan Parliament Criticises US Deportation Plan

Libyan Parliament Criticises US Deportation Plan

The Foreign Affairs Committee of Libya’s House of Representatives has strongly condemned reported attempts by the United States to deport migrants and individuals with criminal records to Libya, calling the move a “blatant violation of national sovereignty.”

In a statement issued on Wednesday, the committee declared its outright rejection of what it described as an “unacceptable intervention in Libya’s internal affairs,” asserting that any attempt to force the country to accept individuals involved in crimes or legal violations constitutes a breach of international diplomatic norms.

“We categorically refuse any efforts to impose individuals who pose a criminal or security threat onto Libyan soil, regardless of their nationality or legal status,” the committee stated.

The warning comes amid reports that US authorities are considering deporting individuals who entered the country illegally and were later found guilty of criminal activity, with Libya reportedly listed among the potential destination countries.

The committee stressed that any unilateral action by US government agencies to repatriate individuals to Libya would be met with firm political resistance. “Should this measure be implemented, we will recommend the adoption of serious political countermeasures, which may escalate if necessary,” the statement warned.

Libya, it added, “must not be treated as a dumping ground for the domestic problems of other nations,” criticising what it called the “insistence on treating Libya as a convenient outlet for internal burdens faced by the US.”

The committee reiterated that such actions would undermine Libya’s sovereignty, disrupt fragile diplomatic relations, and pose significant risks to national security.

The House committee called on all state institutions to closely monitor the issue and prepare a unified response to safeguard Libya’s territorial integrity and legal independence.
