Basque separatists seek international mediators
None
The Basque separatist group ETA, which declared a truce this month, has called for international mediation to end one of Europe's longest guerrilla conflicts, the Spanish daily Gara said on Sunday, citing a press release.
ETA, seeking an independent Basque homeland formed from parts of northern Spain and southern France, has been badly hit by recent arrests of key members and by concerted action by Spanish, French and Portuguese police to search out arms caches. (Reuters)
