NATO failed to resolve differences over whether the alliance should take over the implementation of a no-fly zone on Libya if the United States gives up its leadership in the operation, diplomats said. After weeks of deliberations, the ambassadors on Sunday approved an operational plan for NATO to help implement an arms embargo against Libya UN, so they tried to agree on its implementation and put the finishing touches to plans for the partnership have a role in the no-fly zone.
"There were no results at the meeting," said one NATO diplomat. Responsible for the alliance said the talks would continue. France, which launched the first air strikes, has been against NATO's involvement, while Turkey has opposed any intervention in the north African country, but as the United States cede its leadership in the operation, would require a command for the alliance and control functions to coordinate international efforts.
The French Foreign Minister, Alain Juppe, said that Arab nations did not want the intervention was led by NATO, but that this could participate and "plan and run" operations. "Today, America is coordinating interventions in coordination with France and the UK. In a few days if the U.S. pulls out of the operation, NATO is ready to give their support, "Juppe said.
However, the role of NATO would require political support from the 28 member states of the alliance. Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Turkey wanted to meet several conditions for a NATO role. He said that Turkey wanted the international military operation against the forces of Muammar Gadhafi concluded as soon as possible so that the Libyans could chart its own future.
He also said that military intervention should be avoided with an occupation end.
