The staff of the Libyan People’s Bureau in Canberra has been given 10 days to leave Australia, the Zionist Federation of Australia reports.
Australian Prime Minister Bob Hawke, announcing the expulsion, said that the People’s Bureau was “simply serving to facilitate Libya’s destabilizing activities” in Australia and the South Pacific region.
The expulsion comes in the light of increased public attention in Australia on Libyan interference on the internal affairs of Australia and South Pacific nations and in promoting anti-Zionism.
