Rice to visit Libya
Top US diplomat Condoleezza Rice will make a landmark trip to Libya this week, the first by a US secretary of state in more than half a century, the State Department announced on Tuesday.
Her trip is a tangible sign of warming US-Libya relations, which first began to thaw when Tripoli gave up its weapons of mass destruction program in 2003.
