Major players ready for next round of talks

Meanwhile, consultations among key players in the Burundi conflict have ended in the Tanzanian capital Dar es Salaam, ahead of the all-party talks scheduled for 21 February. "Yes the consultations have ended and a lot of ground has been covered," Burundi government spokesman Luc Rukingama told IRIN. "Other issues, like the issue of the armed groups, will be discussed
at the next meeting."

The Tanzanian 'Guardian' daily quoted Judge Mark Bomani of the
facilitation team as confirming the next round would start on 21 February. "But we are still negotiating with world leaders and parties to the conflict on their participation," he added.
