Letter Published in The National UAE on 9April 19 The people of Libya deserve peace and better leadershipI write to you in reference to your editorial Libya crisis speaks to the failures of Western intervention(April 8). This elaborate piece on the ongoing Libyan crisis was an excellent read. The famously oil-rich nation was dominated by dictator Muammar Qaddafi, for 40 years, much to the disappointment of the international community. But the fact that Libya’s problems have not gone away, years after Qaddafi’s fall, is sad. Despite western intervention in 2011, Libya’s challenges have gone unmet. Libya should be rebuilt and internal conflict should be eradicated. Only then can the nation move on.K Ragavan, Bengaluru
