U.S. calls Gadhafi to disarm

U.S. Army urged to stop Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi to obey at a time when the international coalition putting pressure on it, bombing around Tripoli and the fief of his tribe in the South. "Our message is simple: stop fighting, stop killing their own people, no longer obey the orders of Colonel Gadhafi," said Vice Adm.

William Gortney told reporters during a Pentagon briefing. Gortney added that the attacks will continue while the international coalition forces remain loyal to Gadhafi Libyan massacring the population. The Libyan army again attacked the cities of Ajdabiya and Misrata, military official said, adding that the coalition is trying to destroy these areas Libyan command structures, logistics and ammunition dumps, "to put pressure on troops "within those cities.

France, Britain, Italy, Spain, Belgium, Canada, Qatar and Denmark are involved with U.S. air operations. A total of 38 ships, including 12 Americans, remain along the Libyan coast and participate in the operations. At the European summit in Brussels, French President Nicolas Sarkozy, said the military action in Libya has "prevented thousands and thousands of dead." The French president stressed the need "to avoid the dead of the barbaric insanity of a dictator." According to Sarkozy, as a matter of "a few hours the town of Benghazi (east of the country and in the hands of the rebels) had been the victim of a slaughter," if the coalition had not intervened.

For its part, the European Union (EU) is ready to take further sanctions against Libya so that the regime of Moammar Gadhafi receives no money from the oil and gas exports. The message comes after German Chancellor Angela Merkel arrived in Brussels calling for a "total oil embargo and trade restrictions radicals" to Libya.
