Gaddafi: aggression against Syria the same as against Libya

Libyan leader Col. Moammar Gaddafi said that he views any aggression against Syria as an aggression against Libya. During a meeting he held in the southern Libyan city of Sebha, Gaddafi added that Turkey's trade relations with Libya will be damaged if Turkey attacks Syria.

The Libyan president added that the Turkish companies working in Libya would be expelled and replaced by Greek companies, a matter which would lead to terminating the operations of hundreds of Turkish companies in Tripoli.
