<p>The UK Government reiterates its profound sympathy for UK victims of Qadhafi-sponsored
Irish Republican Army (IRA) terrorism and indeed for all victims of the Troubles.
As set out in the 23 March Written Ministerial Statement: https://questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-statements/detail/2021-03-23/hcws874,
providing compensation for the actions of the Qadhafi regime, separate from the UK-funded
support that has already been made available for victims of the Troubles, is the responsibility
of the Libyan State. The UK continues to press the Libyan authorities to address the
Libyan State's historic responsibility for the Qadhafi regime's support for the IRA,
and has raised this issue at the highest levels of the Libyan Government.</p>
