Germany: sanctions if Libya violence goes on
None
Germany's foreign minister says international sanctions against Libya will be inevitable if the country's regime continues to put down protests violently.
Guido Westerwelle didn't elaborate on what kind of sanctions Libya might face but said Tuesday he had asked the German ambassador to the UN to seek a Security Council meeting on the situation. Westerwelle says it is time for the Libyan leadership to learn from recent events in neighboring countries and that "the best way to stability is the way of democracy." (AP)
