Question: When was the death penalty abolished in the country that recognized the government of the person most closely associated with Libya's new government, along with the country the provides the most oil in the US?

<P0-S0> Capital punishment in the United Kingdom was used from ancient times until the second half of the 20th century. <P0-S1> The last executions in the United Kingdom were by hanging, and took place in 1964, prior to capital punishment being abolished for murder (in 1965 in Great Britain and in 1973 in Northern Ireland). <P0-S2> Although unused, the death penalty remained a legally defined punishment for certain offences such as treason until it was completely abolished in 1998. <P0-S3> In 2004 the 13th Protocol to the European Convention on Human Rights became binding on the United Kingdom, prohibiting the restoration of the death penalty for as long as the UK is a party to the Convention. <SEP> <P1-S0> After the 1969 coup, representatives of the Four Powers – France, the United Kingdom, the United States and the Soviet Union – were called to meet RCC representatives. <P1-S1> The U.K. and U.S. quickly extended diplomatic recognition, hoping to secure the position of their military bases in Libya and fearing further instability. <P1-S2> Hoping to ingratiate themselves with Gaddafi, in 1970 the U.S. informed him of at least one planned counter-coup. <P1-S3> Such attempts to form a working relationship with the RCC failed; Gaddafi was determined to reassert national sovereignty and expunge what he described as foreign colonial and imperialist influences. <P1-S4> His administration insisted that the U.S. and U.K. remove their military bases from Libya, with Gaddafi proclaiming that "the armed forces which rose to express the people's revolution [will not] tolerate living in their shacks while the bases of imperialism exist in Libyan territory." <P1-S5> The British left in March and the Americans in June 1970. <SEP> <P2-S0> with the return to power of the liberals after the 1993 election, ouellet was appointed minister of foreign affairs by the new prime minister, jean chrétien. <P2-S1> despite his experience, ouellet was not popular in quebec, and the lasting legacy of the charlottetown accord hurt him. <P2-S2> after the close result of the 1995 quebec referendum, chrétien wanted to present a new face of his government in quebec. <P2-S3> in 1996, chrétien appointed ouellet to head the canada post corporation. <P2-S4> ouellet's seat in the house of commons of canada was taken by pierre pettigrew in a by-election later that year. <SEP> <P3-S0> idris' government was increasingly unpopular by the latter 1960s; it had exacerbated libya's traditional regional and tribal divisions by centralising the country's federal system in order to take advantage of the country's oil wealth, while corruption and entrenched systems of patronage were widespread throughout the oil industry. <P3-S1> arab nationalism was increasingly popular, and protests flared up following egypt's 1967 defeat in the six-day war with israel; allied to the western powers, idris' administration was seen as pro-israeli. <P3-S2> anti-western riots broke out in tripoli and benghazi, while libyan workers shut down oil terminals in solidarity with egypt. <P3-S3> by 1969, the u.s. central intelligence agency was expecting segments of libya's armed forces to launch a coup. <P3-S4> although claims have been made that they knew of gaddafi's free officers movement, they have since claimed ignorance, stating that they were monitoring abdul aziz shalhi's black boots revolutionary group. <SEP> <P4-S0> In total energy consumption, the U.S. was between 86% and 91% self - sufficient in 2016. <P4-S1> In May 2011, the country became a net exporter of refined petroleum products. <P4-S2> As of 2014, the United States was the world's third - largest producer of crude oil, after Saudi Arabia and Russia. <P4-S3> and second largest exporter of refined products, after Russia. <SEP> <P5-S0> Although theoretically a collegial body operating through consensus building, Gaddafi dominated the RCC, although some of the others attempted to constrain what they saw as his excesses. <P5-S1> Gaddafi remained the government's public face, with the identities of the other RCC members only being publicly revealed on 10 January 1970. <P5-S2> All young men from (typically rural) working and middle-class backgrounds, none had university degrees; in this way they were distinct from the wealthy, highly educated conservatives who previously governed the country.
