Hague: Syria 'not another Libya'

Britain is not seeking foreign military intervention in Syria, but is focused on finding a peaceful resolution to the current unrest, British Foreign Secretary William Hague said today.

Mr Hague said the situation in the troubled Middle Eastern state is more similar to Bosnia in the 1990s than to Libya last year, when Britain joined an international military operation to protect civilians during the revolution which ousted Muammar Gaddafi.
