My (unpublished) letter to The Guardian about NATO pursuing regime change in Libya
Dear Sir/Madam
Discussing President Obama’s 2011 Libya intervention Julian Borger asserts the “US went to the United Nations for backing for military action, but then – in Moscow’s eyes at least – abused the mandate by pursuing regime change” (‘From healthcare to foreign policy – the achievement, and the disappointments’, 4 January).
Readers might like to know the idea regime change became the goal of the West in Libya has more credible supporters than the Russian government.
