EU High Representative Solana calls on the parties in Kenya to engage in dialogue

Summary: 3 January 2008, Brussels- Javier Solana, EU High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) voiced his concern today at the situation in Kenya. He said that the focus must be on encouraging the parties to engage in dialogue with a view to halting the current destabilisation, finding a way out of Kenya's difficulties and forming a government.

Mr Solana stressed that all efforts at mediation, including those of the African Union and of Archbishop Desmond Tutu, deserved full support.

Mr Solana and US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice discussed the problems in Kenya during a telephone call and agreed that these were the priorities and that they would continue to follow the situation.
