French Defense Minister hopes Gaddafi's rule coming to end

The French Defense Minister Alain Juppé expressed Thursday his hope that Muammar Gaddafi's rule was approaching its end.
"I wholeheartedly hope that Gaddafi is living his last moments as leader," Reuters quoted Juppé as saying in an interview with France Inter radio.
Juppé also reiterated calls for sanctions on Gaddafi after his bloody crackdown on protesters, saying that if the option was raised for ceasing oil purchases from Libya, he would "go for it."
