WASHINGTON (AP) - The United States took another step in restoring normal diplomatic relations with Libya on Wednesday when President Bush nominated a U.S. ambassador to the once-outcast nation.
The nomination must be confirmed by the Senate, where some lawmakers are pushing the administration to make Libya do more to account for past misdeeds.
The White House announced that Gene Cretz, deputy chief of mission at the U.S. Embassy in Tel Aviv, is Bush's pick for the post.
