Libya's Leaders Announce Transitional Cabinet

Libya's interim Prime Minister Abdel Rahim al-Kib

Libya's interim Prime Minister Abdel Rahim al-Kib has announced his new cabinet line-up, after it was approved by the ruling National Transitional Council.

The transitional government will lead the oil-rich country until elections for a national congress by the end of June next year.

Since toppling Muammar Qaddafi's regime in August, Libya's new leaders have been struggling to solidify their control over the country and to begin building state institutions.
