Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox officeholder Abdul Hamid al-Bakkoush (Шаблон:Lang-ar) (10 August 1933 – 4 December 2007)Шаблон:Citation needed was Prime Minister of Libya from 25 October 1967 to 4 September 1968. After the proclamation of the Jamahiriya by Gaddafi, he went into exile to Egypt and became one of the leaders of the opposition to the Libyan government. He also held the office of Minister of Justice thrice between January 1964 and September 1968.

Prime Minister

In 1968, during his term in office, Libya created, with Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, the Organization of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries (OAPEC), in order to coordinate production, refining, transport, and commercialization of oil between the three countries. In July of that same year, Libya signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.

After premiership, he became the ambassador of Libya to France.

Opposition from exile

During Gaddafi's presidency he went into exile, first to London and then to Paris. In 1977 he settled in Cairo, Egypt, where in 1982 he created the Libyan Liberation Organization, joining the Libyan National Salvation Front (LNSF), the opposition in exile.

Following the arrival of a suspected Libyan hit squad in Cairo, Egyptian officials faked his assassination on November 12, 1984, publishing staged photos in the press to get Libya to announce the assassination a success. Libya took the bait, and relations between Egypt and Libya, which were already poor, deteriorated even further.
