Perry, Huntsman statements on Libya

Two Republican presidential candidates, Texas governor Rick Perry and former Utah governor Jon Huntsman, issued statements about the recent developments in Libya.

Here is what Perry has to say:

The lasting impact of events in Libya will depend on ensuring rebel factions form a unified, civil government that guarantees personal freedoms, and builds a new relationship with the West where we are allies instead of adversaries.
And now Huntsman:

The impending fall of Colonel Gaddafi is one chapter in the developing story of a nation in turmoil. Gaddafi has been a longtime opponent of freedom, and I am hopeful -- as the whole world should be -- that his defeat is a step toward openness, democracy and human rights for a people who greatly deserve it.
