Gadhafi regime declared no longer legitimate
ISTANBUL (AP) — More than 30 nations, including the United States, on Friday declared that Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi’s regime is no longer legitimate and formally recognized Libya’s main opposition group as the country’s government.
In a final statement following a meeting of the so-called Contact Group on Libya, the nations said: the “Gadhafi regime no longer has any legitimate authority in Libya,” and Gadhafi and certain members of his family must go.
