The U.S. Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, said his country is trying to "convince" the Security Council authorized the UN to further action against the regime of Muammar Gadhafi, including "the imposition of a no-fly zone." "If Gadhafi will not now pose a serious threat to Tunisia and Egypt," Clinton said at a press conference after his first visit to Tunisia since the fall of former President Zine el Abidine Ben Ali on 14 January.
The U.S. diplomat said his country wants to see "how many countries are truly willing to carry out what the Security Council authorized to do." Clinton condemned "the humanitarian crimes committed by the Gadhafi regime" and stressed the need to reach a "ceasefire" and solve the problem of violence on the border with Tunisia.
"The problem is Libya today at the United Nations, seeking a final solution to end Gadhafi to kill the opposition," he said. He noted that his country "does not want a state to adopt a unilateral decision," but they are taken "under the UN" and said the Arab League "gave the green light" to the international organization to adopt a decision on Libya.
To a question about how would a hypothetical intervention and if the U.S. would use airplanes to attack, Clinton said that "another solution is to provide arms to the rebels to stop the killings of Gadhafi troops against the people." In any case, he insisted that "we must allow more time for military planners to find other solutions." As to whether there would be Arab troops in a possible operation, said it "may be followed by ground forces or to strengthen the involvement of aviation, particularly to reduce Gadhafi missile bases are his strong point." Clinton said she "was not discussed anything about the issue" of whether an intervention would land by Tunisian or Egyptian territory.
