Libya asks all countries to lift the sanctions

Libyan Foreign Minister Omar Mustafa Muntasser asked all countries of the world to refuse any to implement the sanctions imposed by the UN Security Council on Libya.

He said the measures were proven to be invalid within the judgment of the International Court of Justice, which has been examining the Lockerbie issue and will rule on the dispute between Libya and the UK and US.

He said Libya had expressed its willingness and flexibility to respond the resolutions of the UN Security Council, including a just and sincere solution for the issue.

He also expressed his hope that Libya would attain more support from peace-loving countries in order to reach a solution that will lift the sanctions from Libya.
