Libyan Government Reportedly Accepts Venezuelan Plan to End Conflict - FoxNews.com

The Libyan government accepts a plan by Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez to seek a negotiated solution to the ongoing conflict in the North African nation, a Chavez spokesman told Reuters.

The Venezuelan plan would involve a commission from Latin America, Europe and the Middle East, along with talks between Libyan leader Muammar al-Qaddafi and opposition forces.

"Libya accepts the proposal to work for a negotiated end to the conflict accompanied by an international commission. Venezuela will continue its contacts in the Arab world and elsewhere to find formulas for peace in Libya," Venezuela's Information Minister Andres Izzara tells Reuters.

Al-Jazeera reports that the plan was struck between Qaddafi and Chavez.

OPEC. 'Nuff sed.

Any deal the doesnt result in Qadaffi either out of the country or dead is going to be a non starter for the opposition.


Methinks Chavez feels he is running out of friends.

But none of these talks were done with the rebels right? thats like the US working out a peace deal with the Taliban by talking to Mongolia, and not talking to the Talibs at all.

The rebels are to be participating in the talks, which haven't yet begun btw. The idea is to negotiate peace much like you negotiate peace at the end of any war.
