"ICC since the beginning of the crisis is always referring to media reports to evaluate the situation of Libya. ICC was used to draw conclusions that are not logical, "said the Libyan regime's spokesman, Ibrahim Mussa.

"We never, in any stage of the crisis in Libya, ordered the killing of civilians, or hired mercenaries to fight against our people," said Ibrahim. "In fact, the rebels who took up arms in the middle of our city secure. Their action caused the death of many people and invite fighters from other countries to join them. "

According to Ibrahim, the Libyan regime have called upon the international community to investigate the facts on the ground, but "nobody's listening." "We continue to call for immediate halt of all violence in this country. We've asked for the start of the political process that allows all Libyans to decide the future of their own country without foreign agenda and the terms of a foreign party. "

Libya's Deputy Foreign Minister Khalid Kaim said, the ICC is the "pet of the European Union, addressed to the leaders and politicians of Africa" ​​and how it works worthy of "questionable". According to him, Libya since the beginning did not acknowledge the existence of the institution.
