Delegation of Libya's National Transitional Council in Brussels
A delegation of Libya's National Transitional Council headed by its diplomatic chief Mahmoud Jibril is meeting with top NATO officials as the allied bombing campaign nears the end of its fourth month, the AP reports.
NATO spokeswoman Oana Lungescu said the meeting would be an opportunity to hear from the Libyan opposition "about how they see the situation on the ground and how they see the way ahead."
Ahead of meeting between NatoSecretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen and a rebel delegation in Brussels on Wednesday, Lungescu reiterated that Natobelieves military power alone will not end the conflict and that a political solution was needed.
Mahmud Jibril, the head of the National Transitional Council, will hold bilateral talks with Rasmussen and have an “informal meeting” with the 28-nation alliance’s ambassadors at Natoheadquarters, the news.com reports.
