DoD News Briefing
Mr. Kenneth H. Bacon, ASD(PA)
Thursday, January 9, 1997 - 1:20 p.m.
Q: An update on an old story. Are the Libyans still building that chemical weapons plant at Tarhunah?
A: I can't comment on that because it would involve intelligence information.
Q: Well, you've said previously that apparently they had stopped -- from all outside signs they had stopped...
A: We believe that they have stopped, yes. As you know, Secretary Perry has made it very clear that he felt they should stop, and had spoken to officials in Egypt and other countries about our hope that they would stop.
Q: Is that a guesstimate or do you have reasons to believe that they have stopped?
A: We believe they've stopped.
