The Libyan Foreign Ministry denounced on Monday the offensive statements made by France’s President Emmanuel Macron against Islam.
The spokesman for the Libyan Foreign Ministry, Mohammed Al-Giblawi, said Macron’s statements incite hate, adding that he was using religion for his own political gains.
Al-Giblawi indicated that Macron should remember the declaration of the European Court for Human Rights of 2018, which says offensive acts against Prophet Mohammed (PBUH) aren’t considered a form freedom of expression.
He added that the Libyan Foreign Ministry calls on the French President to apologize for over a billion Muslims, including French nationals.
