NBC News, citing five unnamed US officials, reported on Friday that the Trump administration plans to permanently “relocate” up to one million Palestinians to Libya.
In exchange, the US would potentially release to Libya billions of dollars of funds that were frozen more than a decade ago, NBC said.
Backroom deals between Italy and US?
The Italian opposition party thinks that the ruling far-right party is doing this because they have a deal with the warlord: he can have a free hand so long as he controls emigration from Libya. He has a coast guard that turns back migrants and he keeps people in detention camps. He also tortures people.
Clearly this hasn’t escaped the attention of the Trump administration.
Possibly. Or directly with the Libyan warlords.
After the US overthrew Gadaffi they installed their own lackeys. That is to say in parts of Libya because there is still a civil war going on.
Well I knew about what we did to Libya and Qadaffi, I just don’t recall Italy releasing Njeem. Basically, if it’s not in my Lemmy feeds, I don’t see it. And when I do, I’m keenly aware that media outlets present their own slants, for their own reasons.
