In Washington on Friday, Hillary Clinton said the United States would respond
only to the actions of the Libyan government, rather than its rhetoric.
The US Secretary of State said that it was not at all clear whether the
announcement of a ceasefire was being matched by a cessation of violence on
the ground by forces loyal to Col Gaddafi.
The statement came after reports of continued fighting in the Libyan city of
Misurata.
Mrs Clinton added that the American government would continue in its demands
for Muammar Gaddafi to step down.
"We will continue to work with our partners in the international community to
press Gaddafi to leave and to support the legitimate aspirations of the Libyan
people."
