Thank you very much, Mr. McKay.
I read AlJazeera news every morning, just to see what's going on in Libya, because it's near and dear to my heart, having done what we've done. At the strategic level the question becomes, as you say, that 60 or 90 days before the end, we were already seeing some of the information, but we can only make recommendations because it's well above...it gets into the strategy, the will of nations, as to whom.
I'm not being critical of any organization in particular; it's just that, using a hockey analogy, someone has to be there to receive the pass. Our question was whom do we pass the puck to? We set perimeters. I spoke to Mr. Martin, the UN Secretary-General's representative for Libya, when he took over. I recommended some information, but because my mission was very restrictive—and rightly so, I had to stay within my mandate—once my mandate was accomplished, we passed on some of the points that I just enunciated to you. Then it became, as I said, at what level, and how do we do this?
More importantly, in my opinion, is not only what's happening there, but the next conflict is part of it. Once we figure out whether we are going or not, the next question automatically should be what we're going to do once we've solved this problem, and resolve that before we commit too much.
Perhaps we could focus more energy at that level.
