==US Libyan intervention==
==US Libyan intervention==
In a meeting with [[US Secretary of State]] [[Hillary Rodham Clinton]] on March 13, 2011 in the [[Paris]] Westin Hotel, Sec. Clinton gave assurances [[United Nations Security Council]] Resolution 1973 would be used solely by the [[United States]] and [[NATO]] to prevent Col. [[Muammar Gaddafi]] from using his airforce to attack [[Libya]]n rebels. Lavrov accepted the assurance and the Russian Federation did not [[veto]] passage of UNSC 1973 on March 17, 2011. By March 19, US air power was attacking Gaddafi's ground forces. The deception was the immediate cause of a deterioration in US-Russian relations which has continued into the [[Trump administration]].
