Sweden no longer recognises Libyan embassy


Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt said Friday he no longer considered the Libya's embassy in Stockholm a legitimate representative of the Libyan people.

"We no longer consider the Libyan Embassy in Stockholm to be representing anything," Bildt posted on his official Twitter feed Friday.

When asked to comment on Bildt's post, foreign ministry spokesman Anders Jörle said "given the unclear situation in Libya, we do not know who represents Libya in Sweden."
