The most obvious examples of massive nationalizations, including some foreign interests, are Russian and Cuban revolutions.
but those revolutions were to a system that did not allow private enterprising. Understandable. In Libyan case...
there was no revolution. Libya had and still has lots of investments in my country Kenya for example.
I know. However, a threat to the status quo--even just changing the rules, not a revolution--is a threat to foreign interests.
but you can change that like Putin admin did. I don't remember his admin seizing ExxonMobil or Shell or Total.
Now now, we beat Mexico and claimed our sovereignty; and then petitioned to join the United States. deja some? TX!
now now you beat shit. Santa Ana sold our territory you didnt win it.
we spanked your boss, he begged for mercy. ez pz.
you didnt win, he was a traitor.
smelled like Victory to me. Come and take it!
this move would have been illegal and would have jeopardised Libyan investments in the other parts of Africa.
