LIBYA: ARAB LEAGUE SUPPORTS TRIPOLI AGAINST SWITZERLAND
(ANSAmed) - TRIPOLI, MARCH 4 - The Ministers of Arab League Countries decided yesterday in Cairo to fully support Libya in its conflict with Switzerland, which they called "racist", and to officially ask EU institutions to "refuse the list of people who are not allowed to enter the Schengen countries". The document arrived after another long day dedicated to the diplomatic row between Libya and Switzerland that started in July 2009, when Hannibal Gaddafi, one of the sons of the Libyan leader, was arrested in Geneva. The countries that signed the document are: Somalia, Sudan, Egypt, Morocco, Mauritania, Algeria, Djibouti, Syria, Yemen, Bahrain, Kuwait, UAE, Jordan, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Tunisia. The decision was taken on the day when Libya launched a "total" commercial and economic embargo on Switzerland. This new move follows the crisis of Schengen visas and the call for Jihad, 'holy war', made by Libyan leader Gaddafi against Switzerland because of the question of the referendum on minarets. The announcement of the "total commercial and economic" embargo came at the moment when Libyan Foreign Minister Mousa Kousa spoke of some hope to resolve the diplomatic crisis between the two countries. In the past two months Tripoli has cut its oil supplies to Switzerland, withdrawn Libyan capital from the country's banks, closed the doors to Swiss Air and to close all Swiss companies active in Libya.
