Description
UN Security Council delegates, led by the ambassadors from the US, France and Niger, arrive in Bamako for two days of talks to push the military-led interim government for a return to democracy after two coups in nine months. The delegation adds to international pressure on coup leaders to abide by a February 27 deadline set by the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) for a presidential election -- a deadline that the regime is openly suggesting might be missed. Human Rights Watch has also called on the UN to pressure Mali in the weekend talks to investigate summary executions and disappearances allegedly carried out by the military in the conflict-torn African country.
