The United States on Monday warned Libya of a "long process" for both sides to normalize relations despite Tripoli's announced decision to abandon weapons of mass destruction (WMD) programs.
"We're looking to Libya to get out of the terrorism game and get out of the WMD game," State Department spokesman Adam Ereli told reporters.
He said that although Libya has made "some very important and noteworthy statements regarding their intention to do so," it needs to follow up the commitments.
"It is a long process. We need to make sure that there is follow through on these commitments," Ereli said. "As there is follow through, we are willing to discuss with them the issue of improved bilateral relations, but we're not there yet," he added.
