The Libyan embassy in Slovakia announced that the Ukrainian police forces are deliberately delaying and preventing the Libyans from leaving through the main crossings between Ukraine and Slovakia.
According to the Libyan embassy, the Ukrainian police give preference to Ukrainian citizens and other European nationalities, as eyewitnesses from the Libyan community said.
The statement stated that crossing from the Ukrainian side of Uzhhorod, western Ukraine, on the border with Slovakia, to reach the Slovakian border took eight hours, in addition to the presence of obstacles at this crossing for pedestrians.
