 TRIPOLI, Libya (AP) - Libya said Sunday it will host representatives from the U.S. and several European and African countries in late April to discuss the crisis in Sudan's Darfur region.
The conference was announced two days before U.S. Deputy Secretary of State John Negroponte's scheduled trip to Libya as part of his current African tour. The visit will make him the highest ranking U.S. diplomat to travel to Tripoli in more than half a century.
The conference will be held in Tripoli on April 28th and will include officials from the U.S., the European Union, the African Union, Sudan, Chad and Eritrea, said Ali al-Teraiki, the AU representative in Libya's foreign ministry.
