11月22日、リビアの国民評議会は、キーブ暫定首相を首班とする内閣を発表し、暫定政府を発足させた。写真は記者の質問に答えるキーブ暫定首相(2011年 ロイター/Mohammed Salem) [トリポリ 22日 ロイター] リビアの国民評議会(NTC)は22日、キーブ暫定首相を首班とする内閣を発表し、暫定政府を発足させた。42年に及ぶカダフィ独裁政権が倒れて3カ月が経ち、国家再建に踏み出した内閣は、国内各派閥の対立緩和を意識させる陣容となっている。 国防相には、西部ゼンタンの民兵組織トップであるオサマ・ジュワリ氏を起用。同組織は19日、カダフィ大佐の次男セイフイスラム氏を拘束していた。 外相は、国連次席大使のイブラヒム・ダバシ氏が本命視されていたが、実際には東部出身でほとんど無名のアシュール・ビンハヤル氏が任命された。 また、財務相には石油会社幹部のハッサン・ジグラム氏が、石油相には伊石油

Britain is sending officials to Libya to help the government to investigate the scale of Colonel Muammar Gaddafi's secret chemical weapons stockpile, retained by the Libyan dictator in breach of promises made to the international community. The size of the stockpile – including mustard gas – suggests Gaddafi totally misled Tony Blair when he promised to destroy weapons of mass destruction in retur

So Gaddafi is dead and Nato has fought a war in North Africa for the first time since the FLN defeated France in 1962. The Arab world’s one and only State of the Masses, the Socialist People’s Libyan Arab Jamahiriyya, has ended badly. In contrast to the bloodless coup of 1 September 1969 that overthrew King Idris and brought Gaddafi and his colleagues to power, the combined rebellion/civil war/ Na

Meeting him again was like encountering an old friend. The questions came tumbling out. "How are you? How did you find me? What happened after you left?" In the early days of the Libyan revolution, Hatem had been the officer in
