London .- The British government has frozen with immediate effect the assets of Colonel Muammar Gaddafi, the members of his family and "those who act on their instructions." Those affected by this order are, according to the British Treasury, Colonel Gaddafi, and his sons Aisha, Hannibal, Khamis, Mutassim and Saif al-Islam.
"I have taken the average to freeze the assets of Colonel Qaddafi and his family and those acting in your name so that those can not be used against the interests of the Libyan people, "said finance minister George Osborne said in a statement. This measure follows the adoption by the Security Council UN resolution against the regime of Gaddafi by Paris and London.
"The UK financial sector has been informed of this as well as its obligation to freeze the assets of designated persons, and the Treasury will take care of its strict enforcement," the statement said. Speaking to the press at 10 Downing Street, British Prime Minister, David Cameron, said last night that Libya is a country "in chaos" and called on Colonel Muammar Gaddafi to leave now.
"No room for Gaddafi in Libya future," he said. Cameron welcomed the success of a second operation run by the British Army special forces to rescue the trapped oil workers in the Libyan desert. "Libya is a country in total chaos and it is difficult to do those things, but I had to do and laughing tribute to the brave pilots and armed forces personnel who helped rescue as many British citizens," said Cameron.
