WASHINGTON - The United States voiced confidence in Libya's main opposition council on Wednesday as the US Treasury moved to permit oil deals with the group - a potential financial lifeline for the anti-Gaddafi uprising.
US Ambassador to Libya Gene Cretz said deepening contacts with the Benghazi-based Transitional National Council (TNC) showed it was "a political body which is worthy of our support" although not yet full diplomatic recognition.
