CNN.com Jordan sees interim council as representative of Libyan people
(CNN) -- Jordan considers Libya's Interim National Council to be the legitimate representative of the Libyan people and will send a permanent envoy to the rebel-held city of Benghazi, Jordan's foreign minister said Tuesday, according to the state-run news agency Petra. Foreign Minister Nasser Judeh imparted the news in a telephone conversation with the head of the interim council's executive committee and its foreign policy point man, Mahmoud Jibril, Petra said. "The minister hailed the council's actions and 'responsible' positions, which he said reflected the Libyan people's demands, ambitions and hopes for a new era of freedom, independence and unity, adding that the council's positions and statements are consolidating its standing internally and in the world," Petra said. Judeh said the permanent envoy in Benghazi would work to "better coordinate with the council" and ensure the continued safe flow of Jordanian aid and medical supplies to Libyans. Jordan joins only a few countries, including France, Italy and Qatar, that have recognized Libya's interim council as the legitimate representative of the Libyan people.
