MOSCOW. May 20 (Interfax) - The UN Security Council's mandate on Libya should not be substituted by actions of other organizations, including NATO, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander Lukashevich said.
"We think that it is unacceptable to substitute the [UN Security] Council's mandate in this sphere by actions of any other associations - whether it be NATO, the Contact Group on Libya or other organizations," Lukashevich said in a commentary posted on the ministry's website on Friday.
