A group of Tuareg rebels, The Niger Patriotic Front,
FPN, said Thursday that it is "ready to start a peace
process" in the country under Libyan mediation.
Making a declaration to the press reporters in
Tripoli, the group said it is to commence surrounding

Secretary-General Kamal Abdullah, and its official for
foreign affairs Yusuf Maha, who all were present in
Tripoli.

agreement on a framework for negotiations that
includes conditions and implementation program that
will lead to a comprehensive peace in Niger.
