NATO to Create Fund for Libyan Rebels


Rome : For the First Time in the modern history the rebels of a country are supported openly with out the mandate of United Nations, which only asked for No Fly Zone over Libya to Protect Libyan civilians not Rebels. Question arises that whether NATO exceeds the mandate of UN by creating a fund to provide food, medicine and Supplies (Every one must know what type of supplies Nato means).

The meeting was hosted by Italy and attended by all Nato member countries including  Hilary 
 Clinton on Thursday in Rome, the members announced that the temporary special fund would aim to channel cash to the opposition administration in its eastern Libyan stronghold.


Franco Frattini, Italy's foreign minister, said $250m were already available, while his French counterpart said the fund could be up and running within weeks.

But efforts to unblock Libyan state assets frozen in overseas accounts, or to allow the rebels to get past UN sanctions that prevent their selling oil on international markets, have been held up.

Clinton said the US government would try and free up some of the $30bn it has frozen in Libyan assets to help the TNC.
