US official meets with Gadhafi's rogue Foreign Minister

[This is the headline over a post on a blog on the US ABC News website. It reads as follows:]

Wednesday in Doha, Qatar, Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs Bill Burns met with former Libyan Foreign Minister Moussa Koussa, the highest-level defector from the Gadhafi regime.

Theirs was the first meeting between a US official and Koussa since his defection, though he had been in regular contact with US officials before fleeing to London late last month.

A senior US official told reporters traveling with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in Berlin that the meeting took place on Wednesday on the sidelines of a meeting of the Libya Contact Group.

The Libyan opposition reportedly did not meet with Koussa in Doha, though another senior official told reporters that Koussa met with representatives from several other countries but made no public remarks at the conference.

[Funny how this has not been mentioned by those in the United States who have been so vocal about the UK Government's handling of the Moussa Koussa "defection".]

    Switzerland is set to remove former Libyan foreign minister Moussa Koussa as nr.24 from its EU sanctions list, following a similar move by the European Union.
    Moussa Koussa, Abdelbaset Al Megrahi and Libya have to do nothing with the Lockerbie tragedy !
    The bank account is un-locked. Welcome to Geneva...
