Geneva still fuming over Libyan apology...

Passions are still running high in Geneva over President Hans-Rudolf Merz's apology to Libya for the "unjustified" 2008 arrest of one of Moammar Gaddafi's sons.

swissinfo.ch went to find out what people in Geneva feel about the agreement to end a year-long standoff that has frozen Swiss-Libyan business ties and left two Swiss businessmen marooned in Tripoli.

"Humiliation", "scandal" and "shocking" are some of the more common words and phrases still being heard on the streets of Geneva just three days after the Swiss president's visit to Libya. More...

Don't miss:

  1. Swiss furious at "humiliating" apology to Libya...
  2. Swiss press chokes on "bitter pill" of Libyan apology...
  3. Switzerland caves in and apologises to Libya...
  4. Gaddafi is a clown, but no one is laughing...
