Jan Vyčítal, Head of EUBAM Libya, addressed senior national officials and diplomatic missions to Libya attending a public event organized by the Ministry of Interiors (MoI) to discuss how to improve national security through better management of Libyan borders and measures to better control migration.

 

EUBAM reaffirmed the Mission’s commitment to support the Libyan authorities in securing their borders and combating cross-border threats. EUBAM expressed strong alignment with the Ministry of Interior’s comprehensive border security initiative and readiness to assist in the capacity building activities in close cooperation with MoI agencies.

 

 

Libyan Minister stressed the danger of uncontrolled immigration and the resulting consequences that have exhausted the Libyan state and could present a serious threat to national security.

 

 

The Minister explained the measures taken by his institution to secure national borders in cooperation with neighbouring countries, notably the recently refurbished watchtowers at the border sector with Tunisia. Such work will continue towards including the whole state’s border, he stated.
