Deauville (France) : The regime of Muammar Gaddafi has lost its legitimacy and the Libyan leader must leave his post, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said Friday after the G8 summit in Deauville.
“If you saw the (summit’s final) declaration, it is written there that the regime of Gaddafi has lost its legitimacy and he must leave,” Medvedev said at a press conference on the summit’s results.
“This was decided unanimously,” he said.
