Libya 'not rewarded' for rejecting nukes
Libyan leader Moamar Gaddafi says his country has been poorly recompensed for pledging to renounce nuclear, chemical and biological weapons.

He says this offers little incentive for other countries to follow suit.

Libya pledged to abandon the weapons in December, ending its international isolation.

Mr Gaddafi told French newspaper Le Figaro he was disappointed that the United States, Europe and Japan had not given Libya more security guarantees in return.

"If we are not recompensed, other countries will not follow our example and dismantle their programs," Mr Gaddafi said on the eve of a two-day visit to Libya by French President Jacques Chirac.

The interview is to be published in Le Figaro on Wednesday

4. Compensated? I thought the promise we wouldn't bomb the crap outta them..
...was enough? According to ChimpCo, Libya gave up their WMD-related programs out of fear of being next on Chimp's war agenda?

Damn! ChimpCo lied to us! The horror, the horror...:eyes:
