A letter jointly signed by President Nicholas Sarkozy and Prime Minister David Cameron – to of the prime movers of the military intervention sanctioned by the UN, says that:
“Our countries are resolved to continue to enforce UNSCR 1973 to protect the people of Libya. More countries from Europe and the Arab world are joining us. It is only when the civilian population are safe and secure from the threat of attack and the objectives of UNSCR 1973 are met that military operations will come to an end.” (pg)
