Gadhafi: US nuclear snub of Libya hurts peace

None

Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi complained Monday that the Obama administration had not invited him to this month's nuclear security summit this month in Washington and said the snub would hurt efforts to rid the world of nuclear weapons.

 

Gadhafi, speaking via video link from Tripoli, said the failure to invite Libya to the meeting was a "political blunder" as it was the most recent nation to give up its weapons of mass destruction programs voluntarily. He said not rewarding Libya's move with an invitation made it difficult to persuade Iran or North Korea to abandon its nuclear ambitions. (AP)
