Jacob Zuma, the leader of the African delegation hoping to broker a political solution to the conflict in Libya, said that the Gaddafi government had accepted their roadmap.
TRIPOLI, LIBYA (APRIL 10, 2011) REUTERS - Muammar Gaddafi has accepted a roadmap for ending the conflict in Libya, South African President Jacob Zuma said on Sunday (April 10) after leading a delegation of African leaders at talks in Tripoli.
Zuma, who with four other African heads of state met Gaddafi for several hours at the Libyan leader's Bab al-Aziziyah compound, also called on NATO to stop air strikes on Libyan government targets to "give a ceasefire a chance."No one at the talks gave details of what was contained in the roadmap.
Anti-Gaddafi rebels have said they will accept nothing less than an end to Gaddafi's four decades in power, but Libyan officials say he will not step down.
