"I voted for this resolution, which is a step in the right direction as regards the reaction of the European Union to the revolution, which is degenerating into civil war, in Libya. Revolutions are a dream that becomes reality, but civil war is a nightmare. With the opponents losing ground under fire from Gaddafi’s troops and mercenaries, and the Colonel sending emissaries to European capitals in an attempt to save his regime, we need to show the Libyan people that we stand by them.
We have heard the appeal that the Interim Transitional National Council made on 5 March. It is our duty to support this alternative and to protect the Libyan people against the forces of the regime. With no direct military presence on Libyan soil, a no-fly zone should be considered. But the decision rests with the UN. However, this option could only be envisaged with the explicit consent of the Arab League. At a political and diplomatic level, we have to ensure that Colonel Gaddafi is isolated and help the Libyan people to finally regain their freedom."@en1
