Obama said this on March 29th. Will you explain to me what he meant, because I can't find an explanation anywhere.

What "interests?"

"While I will never minimise the costs involved in military action, I am convinced that a failure to act in Libya would have carried a far greater price for America," Obama said in his address to the nation.

"For generations, the United States of America has played a unique role as an anchor of global security and advocate for human freedom. Mindful of the risks and costs of military action, we are naturally reluctant to use force to solve the world's many challenges. But when our interests and values are at stake, we have a responsibility to act. That is what happened in Libya over the course of these last six weeks."
