Libya suspends issuing visas to Europeans

TRIPOLI (Reuters) - Libya has stopped issuing entry visas to citizens of most European countries, officials said on Monday, in an apparent escalation of its diplomatic row with Switzerland.
The visa suspension emerged a day after a Libyan newspaper reported that the North African country would take "severe measures" in response to Switzerland drawing up a visa blacklist that included Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi and his family.
