Pentagon sources say the delay reflects political sensitivities with Arab nations amid Libyan delegation talks.

Arab oil embargo eases with production rise for Europe and Japan
Arab oil ministers meeting in Kuwait announced a rollback of production cuts from about 25 percent to 15 percent while maintaining the embargo on exports to the United States and the Netherlands. They warned the move would not end the energy crisis. Japan and Britain welcomed the shift, though U.S. and Dutch embargoes remain. The plan comes as Japan, Britain, and France seek to secure supplies, and as U.S. officials voiced cautious comment on the development.
