CAIRO — The European Union's foreign policy chief says a no-fly zone over Libya should be on the table at a proposed tripartite summit of the EU, Arab League and African Union to discuss developments in the Middle East. Catherine Ashton says all options should be discussed, including a no-fly zone. The Arab League has asked the UN to impose the flight ban to try to stop Libyan ruler Moammar Gadhafi's airstrikes. Ashton spoke at a news conference Monday with Arab League chief Amr Moussa. Ashton did not set a date for the proposed meeting. The UN Security Council was meeting Monday to hear a briefing from UN political chief B. Lynn Pascoe about the Arab League's request. Ashton met Egyptian officials Sunday. She expressed the EU's support for Egypt's democratic process.
