Libya" Global message: from London Meeting: "Gaddafi must go "

UN secretary-general Ban Ki-Moon would lead an international contact group of regional organisations to coordinate efforts to resolve the Libyan crisis. This emerged out of the London Conference on Libya on Tuesday.

The EU, Arab League, African Union, OIC representatives besides 35 foreign ministers attended the conference and agreed to extend humanitarian assistance to Libya in its escalating civil war. They vowed to maintain pressure on its dictator, Colonel Muammar Gaddafi, to quit, but failed to reach a consensus on the extent or nature of the Nato intervention.

The US secretary of state Hillary Clinton sounded an aggressive tone and stressed bombing and missile strikes on Libya's armed forces and their installations will continue until the dictator meets "UN terms" to "make clear to Gaddafi that he must go". 

EU-Digest:  no more lip service, just more airstrikes on Gaddafi tanks and military shelling civilians and  weapons for the rebels.
