Kadhafi, Kufuor Consult About Next AU Summit

Libyan revolutionary leader, Moammar Kadhafi, current chairman of the Community of Sahelo-Saharan States (CEN-SAD) held talks Monday evening in Tripoli with President John Kufuor of Ghana, current chairman of the African Union (AU), concerning preparations for the AU summit scheduled in July in Accra, Ghana.

Col. Kadhafi and President Kufuor, who arrived Monday afternoon in Tripoli, focused their meeting on the creation of an African government, which will be the main agenda item at the Accra summit.

Official Libyan sources said President Kufuor, during the meeting, praised the position of Col. Kadhafi and his attachment to the formation of a government at the AU level. Kufuor expressed full agreement with “the strategic vision of the Libyan Leader, and emphasised the need to develop the African Union so that Africa becomes united and has no more regions”.

In attendance at the talks were Kufuor’s entourage, the Deputy Secretary of the Libyan general people’s committee for external relations and international cooperation, Mohamed Tahar Siala, the Secretary for AU affairs before the same committee, Dr Ali Triki, the Secretary general of CEN-SAD, Mohamed Al-Madani Al-Azhari, as well as the two Libyan and Ghanaian diplomats in post in Accra and Tripoli.
