UN imposes sanctions on Libya

 

On Saturday the UN Security Council unanimously voted to impose sanctions on Libya’s regime following its bloody suppression of the uprising in the country, Euronews reports.

Measures will include an arms embargo, freezing of assets and possible legal action against Libya’s leaders, including the so-called leader of the revolution, Colonel Muammar al-Gaddafi.

Libya’s deputy UN ambassador, Ibrahim Dabbashi, who was one of the first Libyan diplomats to denounce the regime, insisted that the desicion of the Security Council would help those fighting to end Gaddafi’s regime.

‘‘The regime in Tripoli has no credibility any longer. It goes without saying that this resolution represents moral support for our people who are resisting. It will help put an end to this fascist regime which is still in power in Tripoli," Euronews quotes Dabbashi.
