African MPs criticise European Parliament over 'HIV nurses'

PAP on Wednesday resolved to demand a written explanation and an apology from the European Parliament, failing which relations between the two will be suspended. 

This follows a motion tabled by Libyan MP, Dr Mohammed Alourafy, requesting PAP support for the children of Libya. Alourafy said after Libya commuted the death sentence imposed on the nurses to a life sentence, Libya had agreed to release the nurses on the basis of an agreement with Bulgaria that the convicts would serve their sentences in their home country.
