EU forced to play by Gaddafi's rules

In the eyes of the Estonian daily the case of the Bulgarian nurses highlights the weaknesses of Libya's judicial system. "The haggling over money and expert opinions that prove the innocence of the accused has undermined the court's credibility. As a small country Bulgaria's voice is weak, but its position has improved considerably since its accession to the EU at the beginning of 2007. Before this there were only weak declarations of support, but now the credibility of the entire EU is at stake. Will the diplomatic pressure exercised by the EU suffice? This will become clear once the highest legal instance has made its decision, and we can only hope that this courtroom drama will then finally come to an end."
