Libya will not serve as Europe’s border guard, declared Youssef Al-Agouri, Chair of the Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation Committee in Libya’s House of Representatives. He made the statement during a farewell meeting in Benghazi with French Ambassador Mostafa Mihraje, who is concluding his diplomatic mission in the country.

Al-Agouri stressed that Libya’s sovereignty must be fully respected in any migration-related cooperation. He reiterated that Libya cannot host Europe’s migration burden and will not act as a buffer zone to prevent the flow of migrants into European territories.

During the meeting, Al-Agouri thanked the outgoing French ambassador for his efforts to enhance bilateral cooperation. He praised France’s role in supporting political dialogue and engaging constructively with Libyan institutions during a critical phase in the country’s transition.

The two sides also discussed the formation of a unified Libyan government, human rights issues, municipal elections, and the controversial maritime agreement between Libya and Turkey. Al-Agouri highlighted the need for France to continue supporting Libya’s stability through active coordination with local authorities.

The Libyan MP underlined the challenges created by ongoing political division, which he said has negatively affected human rights protection. He also affirmed the parliament’s commitment to advancing the rights file, despite structural obstacles.

On the migration issue, Al-Agouri emphasised Libya’s humanitarian stance towards Sudanese refugees, stating they are treated equally to Libyan citizens. However, he warned against any EU strategies that turn Libya into a detention zone for irregular migrants.

Ambassador Mihraje expressed gratitude for the cooperation received from the Libyan parliament and stressed the strategic importance of Libya to France. He wished the country peace and long-term stability.
