Equatorial Guinea has demanded the lifting of what they call "unilateral and illegal" sanctions imposed for corruption by the United Kingdom against the son of the president of this Central African country, in a statement released Saturday by the Equatorial Guinean authorities.
Teodorin Obiang Mangue, vice-president of Equatorial Guinea and son of the president, was sanctioned on Thursday by London for the "misappropriation of public funds" and bribes that enabled him to finance a lavish lifestyle.
