CAIRO (Reuters) – The Libya crisis is an internal Arab affair and foreign powers should refrain from any intervention Evening Dress, Iraq’s foreign minister said at meeting of the Arab League, which has suspended Muammar Gaddafi’s government.

Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshiyar Zebari, in opening remarks to an Arab foreign ministers meeting in Cairo on Wednesday, said the Libyan leadership must make brave decisions to stop violence and respect the “legitimate rights” of the people.

The Cairo-based Arab League has suspended Libya’s participation in condemnation of a violent crackdown by Gaddafi forces against protests that have grown into a rebellion against his rule.

Zebari called on the ministers to stand in silence in memory of Arabs killed in a wave of pro-reform protests that have swept the leaders of Egypt and Tunisia from power and are challenging the rule of others in Bahrain and Yemen, as well as Libya.

“We hope the Libyan people can overcome these difficult conditions, and that the Libyan leaders take brave stands to stop bloodshed and respect the legitimate desires and rights of its people to live in a free, democratic nation,” Zebari said.

He said the Arabs confirmed their “desire for no foreign intervention” in Libya, whose seat stood empty at the Cairo meeting.

“The situation in Libya is sorrowful and it is not correct that we accept it or live with it,” said Moussa, who intends to run for the Egyptian presidency from which Hosni Mubarak was toppled on February 11.

“The reality is the Libyan people are suffering greatly and facing violations and attempts to assassinate its desire for freedom,” he said.
