We have learnt from media that NATO wants more war planes from its member countries. Even, the anti-Gaddafi protesters also seek more air strike from NATO to oust Gaddafi. But we see there is a clear division among the member countries regarding the method of enforcing no-fly zone over Libya. Germany, Belgium and Turkey oppose attacking Libya. A news item, published in The Hindu of 15 April 2011, surprised us; it says, Russia has finalized a deal with NATO to supply two dozens combat helicopters. t NATO is certainly strengthened by this deal. If NATO makes Libya operation lengthy on any pretext the objective of super powers will be clear, - occupy the natural resources of Libya.
