http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-...ith-libya-exit-proposal-jebril-aide-says.html
Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafiâs son, Saif al-Islam, has approached rebels to negotiate an exit from power for his father in the last few days, an aide to National Transitional Council leader Mahmoud Jebril said.
âOf course, he is trying to put some terms. We understand those terms and we know how to play the negotiations,â Mohamed Al Akari told Bloomberg Television today in Abu Dhabi, where foreign ministers from the 22-nation Libya Contact Group met. âWe are talking now of the last stage of this operation.â
âThere have been obviously multiple feelers from the Qaddafi regime to various members of the international community coming every other day,â Rudd told reporters after the Abu Dhabi meeting. <B>âIn our view collectively, this represents growing desperation of the part of the regime as we believe it enters its end period.â </B>

While the United States has yet to officially recognize the rebel government, President Barack Obama "has invited them to open an office in Washington," a senior administration official told reporters traveling with Clinton to the meeting in Abu Dhabi.
Abu Dhabi (CNN) -- U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton announced an additional $26 million in aid for war victims Thursday at an international coalition meeting aimed at charting the course of a post Moammar-Gadhafi Libya.
But in the North African nation, the war dragged on as Gadhafi held strong despite another round of pounding from NATO jets.
Financial assistance flowed in at the Libyan Contact Group meeting in Abu Dhabi, the third such meeting the group has held since war erupted.
Italy pledged up to $580 million to the Libyan opposition's Transitional National Council -- which is facing a budget shortfall -- to cover its daily expenses, but not weapons, Foreign Ministry Spokesman Maurizio Massari said.
And Kuwait is donating $180 million for humanitarian needs, said Sheikh Mohammed Sabah al Salman al Sabah, the Gulf nation's deputy prime minister and minister of foreign affairs.
