Compaore expected in Lome to reopen Togolese dialogue

Burkina Faso - Burkina Faso's President Blaise Compaore is expected in the Togolese capital, Lome, on Tuesday to begin another round of talks to reconcile the government, opposition and civil society of that country, official sources in Ouagadougou said on Monday.

The intervention of Burkina Faso's head of state is in response to a request from leaders of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) in Abuja, Nigeria, on 22 June, the sources said.

President Compaore's diplomacy resolved the differences between Togolese government and opposition leading to legislative elections in 2007.
