In addition to the UN Security Council, the NATO is also no agreement. "There is no unanimity in NATO about the use of force," said U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates.
However, NATO Secretary General Anders Rasmussen said, NATO remains a wise action plan in the face of all the possibilities.
So far, international pressure is still limited to freezing of Libyan assets abroad. Another pressure is the threat to prosecute past crimes Qaddafi and family.
