PARENA calls for further discussions

Meanwhile, the secretary-general of the radical Tutsi party PARENA, Remy Nkengurutse, on Thursday said that the just ended round of peace talks was “fruitful” but regretted that the meeting did not discuss the candidates. “We only discussed the principles, put in place the mechanisms governing the choice of the future president of the transition, but the issue should still be finalised,” Burundi radio quoted him as saying. “We established the qualities of a head of state and what he should be and I believe the mechanisms should be finalised,” he added.
