Libya condemns UK for recognising rebels as sole power
COMMENTS

Tripoli has condemned the UK for recognising the rebels as Libya's "sole governmental authority" after similar moves by France and the US.

Libya Crisis

Khaled Kaim, deputy foreign minister in Muammar Gaddafi's government, told reporters the decision was unprecedented and irresponsible. Libya would seek to reverse the decision through the courts, he said. Britain has ordered the expulsion of all eight remaining Gaddafi diplomats in the UK. The rebel leadership, the National Transitional Council (NTC), has put forward Mahmud Al-Naku, a writer and journalist, as the new Libyan ambassador in London.
