Libyan diplomats defect en masse


Envoys at key embassies across the world disown Gaddafi's regime in protest over violent crackdown against protesters.

Al-Jazeera

"Diplomats at Libyan embassies in the US, the United Nations, the Arab League, Australia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Poland, India and Bangladesh, among others, have either resigned from their posts, or disavowed links to Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi's government.

We present here a snapshot of their statements.....

Ali Aujali, Ambassador to the United States....

Ibrahim Dabbashi, Deputy Ambassador to the United Nations.....
