The foreign ministry confirmed a report in the German news magazine Focus that it had declared Hisham al-Sharif `persona non grata` and ordered him and his family to leave Germany.
Focus said that Gaddafi`s government had designated Sharif as its charge d`affaires in Berlin on July 22.
On Wednesday Britain expelled the entire staff of Libya`s London embassy and asked Libyan rebels to provide representatives in London. (*)
