8:16 pm
some servers and market years think that supplies to north stream one might actually resume tomorrow after the interruption, the last 2 or 3 days. but it might also be due to the announcements by the european commission of a number of measures that target high energy prices. the european commission has really put forward in july land to reduce gas demand. it was very successful in terms of how quickly it was adopted. so brussels really showed that it can act far. now of course, the challenge is to implement countries individual, you have taken different directions. so each countries are so in the strategy for diversity cation, we have seen many of box between italian countries in africa,
8:17 pm
and the middle east. germany is also being very active. are they to the construction of new and n g terminals, or liquefied gas and the u. s, as it was. so all this political way behind a europe's diversified ation strategy. now in addition to securing more volumes for the next 2 years, the issue really the pressing issue is to push down prices. now i had up next winter. libby is national unity. government is unhappy with it, un chiefs at pick to take over as an extra special representative to live with you and executor. general antonio terrace intends to appoint singer lees diplomat or delay by philly to head the un mission in libya. la diplomatic editor james base joins us now live from the you and sir james at the tell us more about this diplomat and why are they been so angry?

8:19 pm
members break silence and say, we don't want him, then he will effectively become the new special representative for libya. so far that have been no objections from the 50 members of the security council. but there has been one very important objection. this letter, which has come from the libyan ambassador, sent to the set country general and also to the president of the security council which is obtained been attained by al jazeera. the libyan basset says the government of national unity is astounded by the set appointment amidst the governments clear. reservations shed directly with the secretary. generally you don't normally hear in diplomatic language. words like astounded it shows, i think that's how strong the feelings are. and of course, it presents a problem, miss. mr. bassett. he gets the job he supposed to mediate with all the parties, and yet the internationally recognized government in libya doesn't want him in the job. things base un for us. thank you. upon a thing in man that has been killed by israeli forces and occupied westbank. israel
