【焦点大图】利比亚的漫长复苏

独裁者卡扎菲被推翻近两年以来,利比亚仍然在努力恢复正常生活。一个临时国民议会为重建扫清了道路,今年年底要起草一部新宪法。一些联合起来推翻卡扎菲的反对派民兵团体已穿上制服,成为新政府的警察和军队成员。其他反对派团体则一直保持着独立,这和那些努力在法治下寻求统一的人们相冲突。经济因为石油产量一路下滑而继续下挫,旅游业几乎蒸发。但外援增加了,班加西的重建已经开始,利比亚正在申办2017年非洲杯足球赛。

Libya’s Long, Slow Recovery

Nearly two years since the overthrow of the dictator Moammar Qaddafi, Libyans are still struggling to return to normal lives. A temporary national assembly just cleared the way for a new constitution to be drafted by the end of this year. Some of the rebel militia groups who banded together to oust Qaddafi have donned uniforms and become members of the police and army of the new government. Other rebel groups have maintained independence, clashing with those who seek unity under rule of law. The economy continues to suffer: Oil production is way down, and tourism has nearly evaporated. But foreign aid has increased, reconstruction in Benghazi has picked up, and Libya is bidding to host the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations soccer tournament. [37 photos]

Nearly two years later, the people of Tawergha are still stuck in limbo, homeless and, they say, abandoned by a country that has unfairly branded them as supporters of the fallen Qaddafi. They say they fear persecution, revenge attacks and arbitrary arrest if they return – the legacy of a war that has sharpened divisions in the oil-producing nation and raised fears of reprisals in other former Qaddafi bastions including Sirte and Bani Walid. (Reuters/Marie-Louise Gumuchian)
