New York. .- The President of the United States, Barack Obama, said Saturday that the operations of the allied coalition against Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi has saved a number of "countless" lives in Libya and have experienced, a week after its launch, a "important progress", while he stressed that U.S.
involvement is "limited" and is part of an international force "in which Arab states are playing a key role." At its regular weekly address, Obama placed special emphasis on explaining to the American people the reasons for U.S. intervention in the knowledge that their forces are involved in conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.
"We can not and must not intervene every time there is a crisis in the world," argued the current occupant of the White House, "but every time innocent people are repressed so brutal and that someone like Gaddafi threatens to destabilize the region with a bloodbath, we need to act in pursuit of our own national interest.
" "This is one of those moments," said Obama, who ensured that all the efforts of the international operation "are clear and are focused" on the implementation of the mandate issued by the UN Resolution 1973 ordering the protection Libyan people. "We're succeeding," says the U.S. president, who said the operation, which began last Saturday, has managed to "eliminate air defenses" of forces loyal to Qadhafi.
"Let no one be fooled: it is precisely to act quickly, has avoided a catastrophe, and we saved the lives of countless men, women and innocent children," he said. Obama insisted that the role of U.S. forces "has been limited, despite the boost given from the beginning of the operation, thanks to" the unique capabilities "of which provides the U.S.
military. "But this is now a broad international effort" that has the support of "key Arab allies such as Qatar," an Obama describes cooperation as exemplary. "This is how the international community should act, not just the U.S., taking responsibility and the costs relating to the defense of peace and security," he added.
"Our message is loud and clear. Attacks on civilians must stop and Gaddafi's forces must withdraw. The humanitarian aid must reach those in need and those responsible for violence should be brought to justice," said the president. "Muammar Gaddafi has lost the confidence of its people and its legitimacy to rule, and the aspirations of the Libyan people must be met," he said.
