Abstract

The article analyzes the role of the British government in the decision of Scotland to release the Lockerbie bomber Abdel Baset al-Megrahi. Saif al-Islam Gadhafi, son of Libyan leader Colonel Moammar Gadhafi, stated that the release of the person would improve relations between Great Britain and Libya. However, a spokesman for Great Britain's Foreign Office, clarified that the decision was Scotland's alone and would not affect the trade deals of Great Britain and Libya.
