Libya denied today that it had sought to buy nuclear weapons technology from India in the late 1970's. Dr. Abid Hussain, India's Ambassador to the United States, had said on Wednesday that Libya had offered a sum comparable to India's foreign debt in exchange for the technology. But the Libyan Mission to the United Nations said this evening in a statement that Libya "has always firmly adhered" to arms control treaties and agreements.
