An international conference about Libya composed of Arab and Western countries in Qatar decided to create a mechanism of financial support for the rebel forces, and again demanded that Colonel Muammar Gadhafi leaves office. In this first meeting of the International Contact Group, held in Doha, was attended by 20 countries and organizations, nearly four weeks after starting on 19 March of a multinational military intervention under a UN mandate.
According to the communiqué, the Group agreed to establish a temporary financial mechanism "to enable the National Transitional Council, political arm of the rebellion," managing aid and ensure the needs of short-term funding "in the regions controlled by the insurgency. It was not clear that the endowment fund or contribute countries.
The Group also stressed "the need for (Colonel) Gaddafi to renounce the power" to promote a solution to the political crisis in Libya, according to the text read to the press by the prime minister and foreign minister of Qatar, Sheikh Hamad Ben Jassem Ben Jabr Al Thani. In opening the meeting, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said: "It is essential that we speak with one voice," he said, adding that about 3.6 million people may need international assistance.
The goal of "temporary facility" will maintain basic services in areas controlled by insurgents, explained the British Foreign Minister, William Hague. The temporary financial mechanism should be monitored and know they will use the funds frozen money from abroad to Gadhafi and his government to meet the needs of the 3.6 million people the UN highlights.
The next meeting of the Contact Group will take place in early May in Italy, the second country to recognize the Transitional National Council as the legitimate representative of the Libyan people. Robert BurnsLa Barack Obama's insistence that NATO, not the United States, took command in the attacks against the forces of Muammar Gadhafi has revealed an uncomfortable truth for a partnership that never launched an offensive aircraft that was not led Washington.
Even against an enemy considered weak, such as Libya, NATO needs the U.S. power to fight effectively. Not that the other 27 countries in the NATO do not have enough fighter planes, pilots and bombs. The problem is that while countries like France and Britain are willing to participate fully, others have limited their functions to those that are not related to combat.
Others have decided to have no military involvement. All have become accustomed to operating differently in the United States opens the way and takes much of the burden of the fighting. It is somewhat surprising, since NATO was created in 1949 as a US-led response to the threat of an invasion of Western Europe from the former Soviet Union.
But it was assumed that in Libya the situation would be different. In his speech on March 28, which explained the mission to Americans, Obama described Libya as an example of a problem not directly threatening the safety of Americans. This meant that while the United States should help protect civilians there, should not bear the entire burden, the president said.
At the time of his speech, NATO recently announced the decision to assume full responsibility for commanding the operation in Libya, the United States would support. Such assistance would include, for example, much of the operation of aircraft engaged in missions of observation and reconnaissance of the battlefield and sending aircraft from supplying fuel to NATO.
But how effective has resulted in this operation without a major role in the U.S.? Gadhafi has not stopped attacking Misrata, the only major city in western Libya which is partly controlled by the rebels. NATO planes also failed to roll back Gadhafi forces threatening the eastern city of Ajdabiya.
The hopes of the rebels on a military victory, have virtually vanished, amid claims of an intensified campaign by NATO aircraft and the United States. Even some NATO allies have complained of a half-effort. Some alliance members blame each other. French President Nicolas Sarkozy and British Prime Minister, David Cameron, address the situation in Libya, at the Elysee Palace.
