Paris. .- The military intervention in Libya "can last," said French Defence Minister, Gerard Longuet, in an interview published today by the daily Le Parisien. The minister, who visited troops in Afghanistan to France, said that there is a "risk" that the conflict will be prolonged because Muammar al-Gaddafi and Libya "are not entirely predictable" and said the intervention is "long and complicated." Longuet said the international coalition forces, which involved France, have the capacity to destroy all the "logistical supplies Gadhafi troops moving towards the east (of Libya) in the open." The air strikes in that country pose a daily basis "about 150 air sorties per day, of which France says between 20 and 25%," he said.
"The problem is that we lack precise information and verified on the objectives identified in land" in particular "moving targets" he said. Chacon asked on Tuesday to extend the mission Defence Minister, Carme Chacon, will attend next Tuesday to the Defense Committee of Congress to enlist the support of the parliamentary groups to extend the authorization for the Spanish troops two months to continue participating in the no-fly zone that NATO remains on Libya and the signs are that the UI is the only negative feedback received by the mission.
However, despite the support they have ahead of Europe Press the opposition party, PP, PNV and CiU, its spokesmen made some requests to the minister.
