Tripoli (Reuters) - NATO leader Anders Fogh Rasmussen ruled out the possibility of applying the no-fly zone against Syria, responding to an AFP correspondent when he made a shock visit to the Libyan capital on Monday.
"It's completely ruled out. We do not have any intention to intervene in Syria," Rasmussen said when asked whether there is now likely to lead NATO no-fly zone in Syria, AFP reported.
Rasmussen did a surprise visit to Tripolli few hours before the NATO mission in Libya officially declared over, seven months after the Western powers had fired the first missile barrage against Muammar Gaddafi's forces in an air war that plays an important role in getting rid of the veteran dictator.
