End dates of the mission even the shadow. Mahmoud Jabril, head of the Libyan National Council of Transition, reiterates this point several times: "We will go on as long as necessary and certainly endure more of the Gaddafi regime. Whether it's a month or a year, never mind. We clear that there is no going back.
" The head of the government taking shape in Benghazi in Libya and in areas vacated by the troops of Colonel arrives late to the meeting with foreign reporters in the headquarters of the foreign press in Rome. The meeting with the Contact Group has lasted longer than expected. Jabril calmly answered the questions to provide a picture as complete as possible.
About the road map for the new post-Qadhafi Libya, Jabril said that "once the regime finally fell, we will form a transitional government, with elements of the CNT, three members of the bureaucracy of the old regime who have committed no crimes, three members of the military who did not participate in the repression of protest, two members of the police and intelligence services, which also do not have the blood on his hands, a judge of the Supreme Court and representatives of local social leadership.
This transitional government - said Jabril - will be responsible for managing the life of the country until we complete the transformation of Libya in a democratic country. " The steps to achieve this aim are clear: a draft constitution prepared by a technical committee appointed by the interim government, then 45 days after the drafting of the constitution, a referendum to approve or amend it.
Four months later, parliamentary elections under a UN mandate, and two months after the presidential election. In this way, the time X to end the fighting, within 7-8 months, Libya may have finally turned the corner. She speaks little of the military situation on the ground, Jabril. His speech is all geared to the future of the country: "We respect international treaties and trade agreements signed by the former regime - he says - even the treaty of friendship with Italy, which will continue to be a privileged partner in relations with Libya" .
The first step in the new Libya will, however, local elections, to be organized with the help of the UN in Cyrenaica and in other regions under the control of "freedom fighters", as we would point out: "We decided to start with local authorities for two reasons. The first is that it is necessary to organize the democratic government of areas where we do not fight, to restart the administration of the country and maintain essential services to citizens.
The second is that we want to demonstrate that our democratic commitment is not propaganda, it is not a fake glue that holds us together to fight Gaddafi, but it is truly the way we have chosen to Libya. " Jabril, that between 2007 and 2008 was the body set up by Saif al Islam Gaddafi, with the aim of modernizing the Libyan economy and initiate privatization, is very attentive to economic issues: "We have indicated a need for $ 3 billion over the next six months - said to reporters of foreign press -.
And the $ 250 million collected by the Contact Group today are a good start. " According to Jabril, who will be in Washington next week, the CNT will be able to organize the embryo of a new national economy as soon as funds frozen Libyan Gaddafi and his clan will be made available for new political leadership, temporary state Libya.
"What we want is to be able to provide those services, those jobs, those facilities which the Libyan people has been deprived for 42 years by a corrupt regime. E 'for this, and the lack of freedom, that the revolt began and began peacefully. We have taken up arms when the regime opened fire on the first peaceful demonstrations demanding freedom for young people and better living conditions, those who have the right view of the resources of our country, its role as a gateway between Africa and ' Europe, its possibilities and its historical heritage.
" To achieve this goal, Jabril says, "and we are very grateful to the countries that are helping, politically, both financially and with weapons." Names do not take, but it is clear, for some hints, that Italy is contributing "material logistics and communication, and some slightly self-defense weapon," said a foreign ministry source.
Nothing massive supplies of arms, for the moment at least. It would be an explosive topic for the majority of government in Rome, just compacted with a resolution ambiguous in form and substance to the immaterial, since - among other things, the express request of Italy - the command of NATO operations in Libya and NATO decides whether, how and when of any cease-fire for the time horizon is not seen.
Jabril no secret that the road is still long: "Our priority now is to beat Gaddafi and Libyan protect civilians from its repression. We did not want a war against the regime, we had to fight to defend ourselves. Today should be clear to those who still support that Gaddafi is no longer to defend the regime, but to endanger the integrity of Libya.
This is the regime that is aiming to make credible hypothesis of division of the country which we reject. " What happens next? "After? It is not for me or any other member of the CNT to say what will happen when the scheme will be definitively defeated. We are only managers of the present.
Just end the war, the Libyans are to decide who they want to be governed and how. Our task is finished. " Enzo Mangini - Letter 22
