United Nations ( CNN ) -- The U.N. Security Council is considering a new draft resolution that includes a no-fly zone over Libya and additional economic and political sanctions . But council nations remain divided on the no-fly zone proposal . Germany 's U.N. ambassador said his country has questions about such a zone . India 's U.N. ambassador asked , `` Who will implement the no-fly zone ? Who would provide assets for it ? '' China 's U.N. ambassador said his country is concerned about deteriorating conditions in Libya but did n't say whether Beijing backs a no-fly measure . The United States declined to take a public position . A council diplomat said the U.S. is engaged in negotiations on the text . The resolution is in two main parts . The no-fly zone section says the council `` decides to authorize a ban on all flights in the airspace of Libya in order to help protect civilians . '' It authorizes member states to `` take all necessary measures to enforce compliance . '' Another element refers to helping in the delivery of humanitarian food and supplies . There is far more support in the council for the sanctions part , rather than the no-fly-zone . The Arab League recommendation of a no-fly zone carries some weight with reluctant council nations . But the Arab League declaration that there should be `` no foreign intervention '' has perplexed delegates . That 's why Lebanon , the lone Arab member of the Security Council , has been asked to get clarification on this stance from the Arab League . Lebanon 's U.N. ambassador said Libyan diplomats at the United Nations will be asked for information on places and safe passages that can be protected by a no -ly zone in an effort to help answer some nations ' questions on the zone . Lebanese Ambassador Nawaf Salam told reporters his country is in favor of a no-fly zone that would have a deterrent effect on Libyan government forces.. Asked about French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe 's remarks that events on the ground may made a no-fly-zone irrelevant , Lebanon 's U.N. ambassador declared `` nothing is too late but may not be enough . '' Security Council consultations resume at 11 a.m. Wednesday . France 's U.N. ambassador , Gerard Araud , said he doubts a vote will occur Wednesday because the resolution has a long and technical text .
