because it expresses the responsibility of Europe to protect.
The European Council also welcomed the Paris Libya Summit,
It noted that the actions taken by the coalition, have largely contributed to protecting civilians.
And that we have contributed to saving the lives of civilians.
It's thus unanimous on the part of Europe to ask for the application of this resolution.
We support the decisions taken during the Paris Summit, and rejoice at the engagement of the coalition..
..it was a decision taken unanimously by all the countries,
European Unity has prevailed in this case, and the strategy we have proposed...
..along with our British friends,are comforting, and i salute them.
The EU Council specifies the conditions outlined in resolution 1973..
that allows for the halt of military action, it's Frances idea, ...when the civil population are secured..
and the objectives of the resolution have been fulfilled, we will bring an end to the military operation.
