Moi and Bashir discuss peace summit

    NAIROBI

    Kenyan President Daniel arap Moi flew to Khartoum on Thursday to hold talks with Sudanese President Umar al-Bashir on the peace process in Sudan and Sudanese-Kenya relations. A Sudanese official said the meeting would focus on reactivating the peace process in Sudan, and the negotiating mechanism of the regional Inter-Governmental Authority on Development (IGAD), Sudanese state radio said on 29 March. Kenya was the seat of the IGAD secretariat on peace, and President Moi was expected to discuss ways of reactivating its work, the radio said. Moi has said he hoped the meeting with Bashir would lead to a peace summit on Sudan.
