Sunday, 12 November, 2000: Ministers from the Organization of Oil Exporting
Countries will hold informal bilateral talks on Sunday, OPEC President said
Saturday. Ministers are meeting to consider the current market situation
and assess winter oil demand. They will also examine what steps OPEC may
need to take now, ahead of a decline in demand at winter's end. Ministers
are also scheduled to discuss the issue of selecting a new secretary
general for OPEC, but the matter may not be settled at this time, as four
countries - Saudi Arabia, Libya, Iran and Iraq - have all put forward
candidates for the post, which must be unanimously decided. [Dow Jones]

Tripoli, Libya

The Secretary of Libya's Committee for African Unity, Ali
Triki, held talks late Saturday in Tripoli with Rwandan
adviser for Foreign Affairs and Co-operation, Amir
Ismail.

The talks were on the outcome of the just-ended African mini-summit in
Tripoli on the conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).

The 7-8 November Tripoli summit was initiated by 'Mathaba' International, an
NGO for peace, justice, freedom, and progress.

Ismail told journalists after his meeting with Triki that Rwanda was
committed to the decisions of the Tripoli summit and the desire for peace
and stability in the Great Lake's region.

The Tripoli summit approved the immediate deployment of an African neutral
force in the DRC to separate the two sides and their foreign backers.

The force would try to restore peace in the region by disarming the
Congolese belligerents and ensuring security at the Rwandan and Ugandan
borders.
