BRASILIA, 22 Mar. The president of Brazil, Dilma Rousseff, has asked the parties to the conflict Libyan an "effective ceasefire" to avoid damage to civilians. This was expressed through a statement released Tuesday by the Foreign Ministry. The president has advocated an end to the attacks and the opening of a dialogue as the only way to ensure the safety of the public and avoiding an escalation of clashes between supporters and opponents of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi.
"Brazil reiterates its solidarity with the Libyan people seeking greater involvement and a definition of the country's political future in an environment of protection of human rights," reads the note, picked up by the Brazilian news agency. In this line, the leader has expressed support for the work undertaken by the United Nations special envoy to Libya, former Jordanian Foreign Minister al-Khatib Abdelilá and the High Level Committee set up by the African Union to that effect.
In this way the South American country joins the opinion already expressed by China, Russia, India, Turkey, Cuba, Venezuela and the Arab League, which have been shown against the intervention of the international coalition in the country, considering that goes against the resolution issued by the Security Council.
This text, adopted last Thursday by the affirmative vote of ten countries and abstentions from China, Russia, India, Brazil and Germany, supports the adoption of "all necessary measures" to protect civilians, which according to these versions, would not be respected. Brasilia has released its assessment of this case hours after the U.S.
president, Barack Obama, one of the promoters of the intervention, leaving the country to go to Chile as part of his tour of the region. Some versions suggest that beyond the praises Brazil's economic growth, rising power, Rousseff hoped his U.S. counterpart will guarantee its support to apply for a permanent seat on the Security Council, according to the newspaper "Folha."
