Libya News and Views Monday, 30 July, 2001: Libya on Saturday condemned the five-year renewal of sanctions on foreign companies investing in its oil and gas sectors, which was passed by the US congress last week. "We condemn this surprising decision that we categorically reject," Hassuna el-Shaush, an official with the foreign ministry, told AFP. He blamed the US decision on the influence of the "Zionist lobby, which tries to put obstacles in the way of relations between the US and other countries." "Zionist propaganda has clouded the minds of members of Congress," he said. [AFP] _________________________________________________ KOMINFORM P.O.
