CUMHURIYET
BACKSTAGE BARGAININGS
NATO countries agreed on weapon embargo against Libya over the sea and humanitarian assistance, however a decision could not be made on command in operation. Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Turkey would not point gun on Libyan people and noted, "we will not be spectator from tribune."
Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu was expected to give information to opposition parties on Wednesday, but Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) and Peace & Democracy Party (BDP) refused the appointments. Republican People's Party (CHP) told government not to give permission to the operation.
The parliamentarians are expected to be given information at a secret session in the Parliament.
UNPERMITTED EQUIPMENT IN IRANIAN PLANE
The weapons and ammunition seized in a cargo plane belonging to Iran were stated to be banned equipment under the UN sanctions on Iran. As 7 people in the plane were detained, the plane was allowed to go to Iran without the equipment.
The plane was made to land at southeastern province of Diyarbakir as it was going to Syria via Turkey's air space.
HURRIYET
NEW FORMULA IN COMMAND
U.S. President Barack Obama and Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan reached a consensus: Arab world shall join the operations on Libya which will be pursued under the command of NATO. This consensus reflected to the statement of White House which was made yesterday regarding the phone conversation of the two leaders. Here's the most striking part of the statement which includes very diplomatic expressions: "Obama and Erdogan agreed that this will require a broad-based international effort, including Arab states, to implement and enforce the UN resolutions, based on national contributions and enabled by NATO's unique multinational command and control capabilities to ensure maximum effectiveness."
WHAT HAPPENED TO TURKEY'S PLAY-MAKING?
Regarding Libya operations, Turkey's main opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) leader Kemal Kilicdaroglu said, "western world by-passed Turkey and directly contacted with Arab League and African Union. Turkey, which is supposedly a play-maker, cannot even be a figurant."
BIG REACTION TO INSOLENT SLAP
BDP (Peace & Democracy Party) deputy Sebahat Tuncel's slapping Security Department Chief Murat Cetiner in the face during Nevruz celebrations in Silopi town of the eastern province of Tunceli as well as BDP deputy Bengi Yildiz's coming at police officers with a stone in his hand in the eastern province of Batman caused indignation both in public opinion and political world.

Speaking at a TUSIAD meeting on Tuesday, Cem Boyner, executive board director of the Boyner Holding, said "happiness, freedom, rights and honor of our people are far more important than the state itself and even the division of the state."

SABAH
NOT DEATH BUT ASSISTANCE SHOULD GO THERE
Speaking at group meeting of his Justice & Development (AK) Party, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said, "Turkey will never be the party pointing a gun to Libyan people. U.N. should be the umbrella of the operation bringing humanitarian assistance to Libya."
