Tanzania may mediate in rebel conflict

    NAIROBI
    Meanwhile, sources told IRIN that Tanzania is set to mediate between Uganda, Rwanda and their respective rebel factions. The sides were due to meet in Uganda on Monday. News organisations said rebel leaders Jean-Pierre Bemba of the Mouvement de liberation congolais (MLC) and Ernest Wamba dia Wamba would attend, along with representatives of the mainstream Goma-based RCD. The meeting is intended to bring the parties back to the cause of fighting the government of President Laurent-Desire Kabila, the sources said.
