We [Libyans] support the Palestinian resistance, and all the world supports this. We support their just cause, but we are against terrorism.

During my term in AU, I will initiate an organised compensation claim for Africa and I will fight for a greater voice for Africa in the United Nations Security Council. If they (Western nations) do not want to live with us fairly, it is our planet and they can go to other planet.
