Celebrity class photos ......Official: Nicaragua would consider Gadhafi asylum
AP – 7 hrs ago....tweet6Share0EmailPrint......MANAGUA, Nicaragua (AP) — An adviser to Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega said Tuesday that his government would consider giving asylum to Libya's Moammar Gadhafi if he asked for it, but acknowledged it would be difficult to arrange.

Asked whether Nicaragua would offer Gadhafi asylum, economic adviser Bayardo Arce said he didn't know how Gadhafi could even get to this Central American nation, whose government has been a strong ally of the Libyan leader.

"I do not know how Gadhafi could get here from Libya, because we do not have an embassy in Libya," Arce told Channel 63 television.

But Arce said "if someone asks us for asylum, we would have to consider it positively, because our people got asylum when the Somoza dictatorship was killing us," Arce said, referring to the 1979 uprising that overthrew dictator Anastasio Somoza.
