 Mauritania prime minister Saghir Weld Mubarak yesterday accused the opposition of "provoking for a civil war." He also accused each of Libya and Burkina Faso of their attempt to make what he called "conspiracies" against the country.
| Doesn't surprise me in Libya's case. I didn't know anybody was awake in Burkina Faso, though. |
Mubarak stressed during discussions at the national society (the parliament) that statements by the opposition on non-existing refugees and bringing back to the scene the events of 1989 as well as silence which supports coupes, all constitute "a continued provocation to violence, hatreds and the civil war." Concerning Libya and Burkina Faso, he indicated that conspiracies made against his country by them were reflected in "financing and arming terrorist groups, " stressing that their attempts "will fail in the future and will not be successful." During the session which was dedicated to debate a report on the government's activity in the parliament for 2005, Mubarak's statement were interrupted by denunciation statements by opposition parliamentarians but were met with great applause by the parliamentarians of presidential majority. |
