THE DAILY TELEGRAPH: French president Nicolas Sarkozy has demanded Colonel Gaddafi step down as Paris and London sought to step up the pressure for the Libyan leader to stand aside.
"Mr Gaddafi must leave," Sarkozy told a news conference with his Turkish counterpart Abdullah Gul in Ankara.
However, he indicated that he would not back direct action to force the president out.
"Regarding a military intervention ... France would consider any initiative of this type with extreme caution and reserve," he said. >>> | Friday, February 25, 2011
