Envoy: Gaddafi 'seeking way out'

An envoy of Muammar Gaddafi told Greece’s prime minister the Libyan leader was seeking a way out of his country’s crisis two weeks after his government’s attacks to put down a rebellion sparked international air strikes, Greek officials said.

Abdul-Ati al-Obeidi, a former Libyan prime minister who has served as a Gaddafi envoy during the crisis, will travel next to Turkey and Malta in a sign that Gaddafi’s regime may be softening its hard line in the face of the sustained attacks.
