do not intersect then those human rights violations are highlighted and that's the case with it with libya obviously oil interests and other interests the moral outrage i mean we were talking now about the violations the fact that he has done throughout his rule is rule but if you if you want to speak about an i.c.c. indictment the correct one that could have happened in july in june one thousand nine hundred six when the deficit forces committed and i second a crime against humanity in other sleep prison in tripoli where twelve hundred thirty political prisoners were gunned down with mass graves and i visited the area that are on in two thousand and ten and you would have stories from the outside as people outside the prison and stories from acts detainees who witnessed a lot of this message so it's not like something that was nobody knew about but you had actual witnesses that heard and know some of the details of what's happening but this did not happen this was postponed until two thousand and eleven where you know the interests were not pulling together so it's politically expedient p

afghanistan and iraq it's failed miserably in those areas and if it continues in the fashion it is with libya we're likely to go down that same route i think the concern all around is how do you ensure that you maintain that what the mandates the u.n. mandate clearly calls for which is not regime change is protection of civilians and property so i think it's going back to the blueprint how can we get nato to stop complying to international regulations in terms of maintaining the status quo rather than choosing and for me it's all it's own opinion as to whether they want to get rid of gadhafi or not mark or you want to jump in there. yeah it's not just international regulations it's international law and nato does believe that he cannot just manipulate its way and ignore all deceive the security council once it's in there on any basis it's going to act on its own but he says this is just arrogance by the western powers i believe it's about colonial. background these this is the new imperialism that we're faced with i think it's the biggest danger to a stable world that simon both russia and i'

let's start with libya. there's been two reports out there. we heard from the gadhafi side about a peace deal. we heard from the rebellion said, gadhafi, he can stay in the country if he leaves power. what's the truth going on in the middle? >> reporter: the truth is that there are no real serious negotiations between the two sides. these are mostly reports that have been in the media and denials by the government or denials by the rebels. the rebels at one stage said gadhafi could stay in the country if he leaves power. then the government said today that gadhafi has no intention of ever leaving power. so the reality is there's no concrete dialogue here. it is still a conflict and it is still a deadlock. >> you're in cairo. i do want to go there. there's more protests due to a court ruling. there's speculation that the elections could get postponed beyond september. what can you tell us about all that? >> reporter: there's still a lot of political chaos here. many egyptians are worried that there has not been enough time to organize the elect

security council resolution on libya foreign minister sergey lavrov has also once again said that the sides in the syrian conflict should resolve their differences through dialogue with our correspondent is the foreign ministry for. libya was the key issue discussed during a meeting between two foreign ministers that's folding france's deployment of arms to libya france air drops guns. in order to help civilians protect themselves and according to french foreign minister when it comes to protection of civilians all measures are justified they claim that u.n. security council's resolution allows them to do so because it isn't it is unacceptable that it violates the arms embargo to libya and to conform minister has said even though to ministers two countries have similar view on libya's future that it has to be peaceful and democratic states that the u.n. security council's resolution can be easily misinterpreted to diverse illusion nine hundred seventy three contains chapter four which allows anyone to do anything in this very chapter that was the cause of all problems with the mandate and all of the aspects we supported and as we have warned now we're facing a robot
