"In my opinion, this is not the best time to have this resolution adopted by the European Parliament, since the first Libyan Government resulting from democratic elections has just been sworn in last week. It obviously needs time to grasp with the many daunting challenges the country faces in a post-war situation. One of the appalling legacies from Gaddafi concerns is the mistreatment of migrants and asylum seekers in Libya: migrants were and are exploited and discriminated, many of them detained under inhumane conditions, subject to torture and barred from access to justice. Yet, the 17 of February Revolution was made to restore dignity and human rights to all in Libya. And Libya is, and will continue to be, a magnet for migrants and asylum seekers from all over Africa. This requires the new democratic Libya to ensure legal protection and respect for the human rights to all foreign workers, asylum seekers and refugees. The EU and the UN must support Libya in this effort, in the framework of assisting its democratic transition. I hope the new Libyan authorities and the Libyan people will take this EP stand in this constructive and cooperative spirit."@en1
