President Barack Obama will address the nation next week on the U.S. and allied military action in Libya as he faces continued questions from some lawmakers about the mission’s goals and costs.

The president will talk about “the actions we’ve taken with allies and partners to protect the Libyan people from the brutality of Muammar Qaddafi, the transition to NATO command and control, and our policy going forward,” according to a White House statement.
