Clinton holds talks in Tripoli with Libya's interim authority

The US Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, has held talks with the leaders of Libya's new interim authority in Tripoli.

At a town hall style meeting, Mrs Clinton said she was proud to be standing on the soil of a free Libya and that it was a privilege to see its new future being born.

She is the highest level American official to visit Libya since the uprising started against Colonel Gaddafi.

The BBC's Kim Ghattas reports from Tripoli.
