US backs Libya UN expulsion bid
The US government is set to throw its weight behind a European effort to expel Libya from the UN’s top human rights body and name a special investigator to look into alleged atrocities committed by Muammar Gaddafi’s regime.
US secretary of state Hillary Rodham Clinton will help coordinate the larger international strategy to stop the violence in Libya when she attends a meeting of the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva next week.
