Libya, Egypt in new reconciliation bid

Meanwhile, Libya’s minister for African affairs, Ali Triki, and Egyptian Foreign Minister Amr Moussa planned to meet with Sudanese officials next month in a bid to redouble efforts at ending the civil war, news reports said on Wednesday.
The reports, quoting sources in the Libyan capital, Tripoli, said the decision to revive the initiative had been taken at a recent meeting of the Executive Council of the Community of Sahelo-Saharan States, which was held in Asmara, Eritrea.

The sources said the Sudanese foreign minister, Mustapha Osman Ismail, would attend the forthcoming meeting. Triki met with Ismail in Khartoum on Monday to discuss the Libyan plan to revive the national reconciliation initiative.
