The Libyan rebels asked financial aid to Spain to rebuild the country

The Prime Minister of the National Transitional Council (CNT) of Libya, Mahmoud Jibril, has asked the Spanish Government financial aid to rebuild the country and meet the needs of the Libyan people as the dictator Muammar Gaddafi does not leave the power. Jibril has made this request to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Trinidad Jimenez, in a meeting on his official visit to Spain.


In a press conference after the meeting, the rebel leader has warned that if countries like Spain did not provide these financial funds, the legitimacy of CNT "will blur" to the Libyan people. Jimenez has said that the Government is considering "all options" to use the funds blocked in Spain Gaddafi as collateral for loans to the body that brings together the Libyan opposition.
