Spokesman for Libyan interim government, Abdul Hakim Ma'touq described the the recent US decision as a "sovereign decision we cannot challenge it."

"We cannot claim any state not to make such kind of precautionary decision and measures, especially with the lack of security in Libya , but we cannot even issue a statement denouncing or condemning Trump's decision, as long as we cannot be as unite in Libya", Ma'touq said.

He stressed that these actions represent a racial discrimination based on religion.
