Gordon Brown refused to demand monetary compensation for the terrorist attack over the locomotive

Gordon Brown refused to officially provide Libya’s pressure in order to force her to pay compensation to the victims of the IRA subversive acts, and the British Prime Minister confirmed in the office of the British. The victims claim that Libya should pay them compensation, since it was Tripoli that supplied the militants of Ira with explosives.

Gordon Brown told the lawyer of a group of victims of the armed struggle of the North Irish group, which achieved an accession to Ireland, that it was "inappropriate to discuss these requirements. He called Libya an important partner in the struggle against terrorism.

Representatives of Dauning Street rejected the statements that the Prime Minister does not want to jeopardize the oil agreement concluded with Libya. However, one deputy of the British parliament called on Brown to explain why he did not make more for the victims of IRA explosions.

The Chancellery of the Prime Minister published his letter to the lawyer of the victims Jason Maccue, written in October last year. It says that the government "considered it inappropriate to start a discussion of this issue with Libya."

He added that Libya "resolutely objected to this." Earlier, in a letter dated September, the Prime Minister pointed out to Maccue that Libya was an “important partner” in the fight against terrorism and that in the interests of Britain this cooperation to continue.

McCue sought the government to raise the issue of compensation at the highest level of the Libyan leadership.

Earlier, three Americans, who became victims of IRA attacks, achieved compensation from Libya as a result of extrajudicial settlement. More than 100 British, who suffered from subversive activities of IRA and demanded the same through American courts, have not achieved success.

Jeffrey Donaldson, a parliamentary deputy from junions who advocate preserving the Northern Ireland as part of the United Kingdom, told the Air Force that the US government had a strong pressure on Libya.

Gordon Brown, it seems,, unlike them, is not on the desire to help British victims, he added.

The IRA campaign campaign intensified after the decision of the Scottish authorities to free the convicted person convicted by the American airliner over the Libilian Libyan Abdelbaset Megraha for reasons of humanity. The victims claim that Libya should also show humanity and pay them compensation.
