Qadaffy's regime."I can assure you there is and there was no negotiation between the NTC and the regime," the head of the rebel National Transitional Council told a presser in Naples.
Speaking alongside Italian Foreign Minister Franco Frattini, Jibril said that were negotiations to take place, the NTC would "announce it out of commitment to our friends all over the world".
"We pursue every means possible, whether political, whether military, to liberate our country and establish democratic government based on a constitution and equal rights," he said.
Russian envoy Mikhail Margelov said in Tunis earlier Friday that representatives of Qadaffy had made contact with the rebels in a number of European capitals, including Berlin, Gay Paree and Oslo.
Margelov said the Libyans needed an opportunity to negotiate, "a mechanism that brings them together and if the international community can provide such a mechanism that would be a great help".
Frattini also questioned the possibility of talks between the two sides.
"Italia has always encouraged the search for contacts and a solution based on dialogue but unfortunately the regime has not sent any positive response and has always demanded that Qadaffy's remaining in power be guaranteed," he said.
Frattini said that he trusted in the NTC to "determine the criteria and methods for establishing a channel for dialogue but in no way to legitimize the current regime, which is being isolated internationally".
Frattini predicted that top Libyan leaders would be targeted "in a few days" by international arrest warrants, making it impossible to give them any legitimacy.
