Many Moroccans residing in Libya suffer from a difficult situation, as most of them live in illegal conditions due to the deteriorating economic and social conditions in the country, which makes returning to their motherland an unattainable dream. Complex procedures and heavy fines are the most prominent obstacles facing these migrants who wish to return to Morocco.
Libyan Interior Minister Imad Trabelsi called on the United Nations Support Mission in Libya to help the country implement a “voluntary return” program for irregular migrants. He explained that Libya includes more than three million irregular immigrants, and the country receives between 90,000 and 120,000 immigrants per month, calling for United Nations support to help the country implement the voluntary deportation program.
In this context, the demands of Libyan Moroccans appear to provide safe conditions for their return to their homeland, as they face legal obstacles and financial fines due to the expiration of their residency permits and their non-renewal due to the absence of consular services. Muhammad Hassan Al-Wathiq, Executive Director of the Libyan-Moroccan Friendship Association, pointed out that Moroccans residing in Libya suffer from fragile economic conditions and want to return, but the fines resulting from the delay in renewing residency papers constitute a major obstacle.
Al-Wathiq stressed the need to provide facilities to enable Moroccans to return to their homeland without legal obstacles, as settling the legal situation in Libya requires huge sums of money that exceed their financial capabilities. He stressed that these measures contribute to expanding the circle of irregular migrants in Libya.
In the end, Al-Wathiq believes that the situation of Moroccans in Libya is a great loss for Morocco, calling for work to improve their conditions and for Morocco to benefit from their wasted energies in other countries.
