libya's politics economy and perhaps some other spheres the old cooperation between libya and the u.s.s.r. and a new partnership between libya and russia when. i first saw russia talk as libya's partner was to deliver humanitarian aid to the country if you're in the military phase of the political conflict we had talks with the leaders of the national transitional council in benghazi and agreed that the interests of russia would be respected and libya after gadhafi was toppled and all contract for the russian would be preserved and the interests of russian companies respected were going to continue our active work of abia. according to early statements by the national transitional council a new government will respect contracts concluded with the russian federation but we also hear other statements like the one made by one of the new heads of the libyan oil company he doubted russia's position during the voting on security council resolution one nine seven three saying that russia was more demanding than it should have been and that it was more. locked and to show its support for the opposition ther

there are responsibilities on this new government in libya. they include the protection of civilians and migrant workers. they have a huge task ahead of them and we hope that they will receive the aid and support that they need in executing this task. >> how much aid and how much support do you think the international committee should be offering? this is very much libya's revolution. libyan fighters and achieved this on their own without too much help from nato. how much involvement from the international community would you want to see? >> i think the international community in order to support this uprising by the people of libya against their dictator. they should muster the same kind of energies, the same kind of mobilization, to help the national transitional council of libya to achieve what it needs. this support should go beyond words, there should be tangible efforts. i think that is something that will be on the table tomorrow at the meeting. >> it is good to talk to you. speaking to us from new york, thank you very much. let's get s

libya is now in the hands of the libyan people. for, just as it was libyans who tore down the old order, it will be libyans who build their new nation. and we've come here today to say to the people of libya, just as the world stood by you in your struggle to be free, we will now stand with you in your struggle to realize the peace and prosperity that freedom can bring. in this effort you will have a friend and partner in the united states of america. today i can announce that our ambassador is on his way back to tripoli, and this week the american flag that was lowered before our embassy was attacked will be raised again over a reopened american embassy. we will work closely with the new u.n. support mission in libya and with the nations here today to assist the libyan people in the hard work ahead. first and most immediately, security. so long as the libyan people are being threatened, the nato-led mission to protect them will continue. and those still holding out must understand, the old jeem regime is over and it's time to lay down your arms and join the new libya. as this happens, the worldpport dangerous weapons conventional a

today, i stand before you, excellencies, to show the world that a new libyas coming to life. looks forward. libya that has a view to redevelop itself. libya that wants to heal its wounds. oveomehat wants to its pain, to reach out to the entire world. it was to rebuild itself, to reform its history. the vision of new libya, s democracy world by a clear, unambiguous constitution setti forth rights a obligations that does not discriminate between male or female, one community or another, one political beliefs or another, east or west, whether by racial or ethnic justifications, all libyans are sons of this nation. a nation that now is determined to heal its wnds and move on, following 42 years of -- from the international community, as a party that can help in building a human civilization. we do not claim that we have a magic wand as gaddafi claimed, when he looked at himself in the mirror and suddenly discovered that he is an almight prophet, with a solution to every problem on earth, except for libya's problems. for 42 years, libya now hwaas 15 of its people under poverty, an

we can speak with a member of the new american foundation. he has been in libya for five months now and joins us on the phone. what do you make of these different views? one is very aggressive and another more conciliatory. >> colonel gaddafi had been grooming his son to succeed him for many years. he did not control any of these militias, and he took a lesser role in the political process, so he tried to appease the other libyans and reintegrate himself by surrendering. the most truths? >> i thing he is really speaking for his father. his father still wants to keep her resistance strong. he thinks there is a share of state to reject a chance he can create some sort of insurgency. he understands the fight is over, and he wants to live a normal life. >> how important is that city? >> it is very important. it is colonel gaddafi's and birthplace and the anniversary of his revolution on september 1. ever since the 1990's, he has increasingly come to rely on his tribe to staff security who positions within his regime, so a lot of people have families and will probably

although many see libya moving into a new era of law and freedom world affairs analyst carmen russell such as can you from the voice of russia isn't so optimistic about libya's democratic future. the problem is that you have so many disparate interest among the rebels that there's it's certainly going to be a tough road and it's kind of interesting that the u.s. really wants to get into this quite as much i mean i think that it has a lot to do with self-interest in terms of trying to keep certain elements in the among the rebels from getting any from taking any power any real power and of course those are the elements such as you know the more islamic elements so there might be at some point a possibility for real democracy however the problem is is it going to be the democracy that america is going to try to apply impose on it and now that i think is that could be the potentially the real problem how much is the united states and nato and european nations going to be meddling in that democracy in the ground in libya fighters backing the new leadership continue to power and what's lef

news reporting. neart's go to my colleague that area in libya. what is the national transitional council saying about these reports of a convoy of fleeing south? >> they have put out one statement saying that there was gold and cash in the convoy. that is a source of suspicion and perhaps a fear among rebel commanders is that gaddafi or his clothes are to rush are in some of those vehicles -- or his close entourage are in some of those vehicles. clearly the net is closing in the sense that -- >> all right, we seem to have a problem there with that line. let's move on now. joining me now from johannesburg is robert, from the oxford business school. thank you for joining us. would you be surprised if it is proved correct that members of the gaddafi entourage and perhaps even himself word to end up in one of these neighboring countries like burkina faso or niger south of libya? >> it would not be surprising. as we have heard from algeria, they have already offered asylum. burkina faso has made offers as well. there's plenty of opportunities for plac

you want and i very much encourage it but first let's look at some of the challenges facing the new libya. following six months of iraq about all the grip the world's attention the arab spring has produced another significant outcome the toppling of libya's kurds our theme may have come as a surprise to almost everyone now the least of which were the rebels who fought the forty two year regime. but it's the victory fanfare settles the libyans are facing a far more trying challenge that of proving they can create an alternative to could south israel we understand that we're looking to look at the situation look in the local civil affairs office so we are starting from on with legal point. here. in this situation the country is transitional council has been lobbying foreign governments to unfreeze billions of dollars and conduct his assets to jumpstart the country's economy and the international community has afforded libya the benefit of the doubt while there will be huge challenges ahead one of the positive aspects here is that the libyans are the ones who are undertaking the regime chang

libya. those stories when the cbs evening news continues. >> mitchell: overseas, libya's new government is having a tough time ousting what remains of the qaddafi regime from their strongholds in the towns of surt. the resistance is especially strong in surt, with house-to- house combat reported. as elizabeth palmer tells us another test for libya's new rulers is to get oil exports flowing again. >> reporter: libya's dictator is almost history but he's left behind a country that needs rebuilding fast, so libyans don't lose faith in this revolution. the billions to do it have to come from libyan oil profits. if all goes well, within just a very few days, oil flow through giant pipelines from the western desert into the refinery and production can begin. the engineers say it's crucial to get this refinery up and running to show libyans they can run their country without qaddafi. at the zawiya refinery near tripoli, engineers are already optimistically back at work. the only wild card is when the oil is going to come, right? >> yeah. >> yes. that's coming soon. >> reporter: libya used to produce 2%

yes a first chance for many around the world to really take a look at libya's new leader russia is attending as a many countries from around the world not just those who took part in the bombardment of libya there is some concern here about the language being used by western powers so just before this meeting talk of creating a roadmap for libya of helping i'm going the country's development is that it will try to take the future of libya both politically and economically russia's representative. is a man called because he says that most of the libyan people. colonel gadhafi i mean what the final decision on what libya is going to become an easy one for the libyan people to make. politicians will be playing a leading parts we simply the national democratic vote will determine this and it should be well prepared and moduli courageous this is where the international community and russia in particular is eager to render active support to the libyans . now a key issue on the table will be unfreezing of libyan money held the broad. money which is now being on frozen and given to the rebel leaders

in this special report, we look at whether islamism and democracy can fit side-by-side in the new libya. >> the revolution has created some powerful new heroes here, and among them, this man. he has been man's -- years of fighting in afghanistan. the new osama bin laden. he was captured by the americans, held by them for two years, and he said he was tortured. now, they want to join the new -- joined the new political mainstream. in a sense of compromise and pluralism. >> i think dialogue is the best way. we need to speak to each other, and god willing, we will reach agreement. the libyan people need space to choose the type of government they want. we will be with them on this journey. >> the political islam and people might be free to organize, but there is public opinion. although libyans may be deeply religious, they showed little or no appetite for islam government. >> we do not have any extremists. not to worry. as you can see, libyans are moderates. this is not the place for extremists. >> libyans have been denied free expression for decades, but the idea that mosque and state, t
