" African Union. Absent from today's meeting in London of the Contact Group on Libya, as well as from the summit in Paris last March 19 which was decided on military intervention to enforce the 'no-fly zone' decreed by the UN, the African Union he still wanted to make their voices heard on the crisis in the North African country, urging the great powers to demonstrate full support for the 'roadmap', the peace plan it has developed.
To this end the Secretary-General of the EU, the diplomat Jean Ping of Gabon, wrote a message to British Foreign Secretary, and 'host', William Hague. "I am confident that, as in previous years, we can count on our partners' efforts in Africa with regard to Libya," said Ping in the message, the content of which was announced by his spokesman, Noureddine Mazni, "I am confident that we will have the opportunity to exchange views on the issue."
