Que devaient faire les autorités américains si on retrouvait Kadhafi vivant? On aura pas eu à trancher finalement...
"But the White House session — part of an exercise to game out Libya’s future — and a meeting two days earlier between Libya’s interim leaders and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton attested to the deep sensitivity of the issue and the ambivalence it stirred on both sides.
There were sharp divisions within Libya’s Transitional National Council about what to do with Colonel Qaddafi, according to American officials. Some argued that he should be tried in the country; others said it would impose too big a burden on an interim administration dealing with so many other problems.
The ambivalence was mirrored on the American side, with some in the administration concerned that Libya did not have the resources to conduct a proper trial, while others worried that pressuring the Libyans to send him to an international tribunal in The Hague would be viewed as encroaching on their sovereignty.
“The delicate question was how to balance Libyan sovereignty with a frank assessment of their capability to hold a fair trial with international standards,” said a senior administration official who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly. “We were trying to walk a fine line.”
Mrs. Clinton, officials said, laid out the options for Libya, explaining the principles behind the International Criminal Court, to which the United States does not belong but with which it has worked more closely under President Obama. She told the Libyan officials that the decision of where to hold a trial was up to them."
