Envoys from Tripoli due in Moscow on Tuesday

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Monday representatives of Muammar Gaddafi's government were expected in Moscow on Tuesday and Russia hoped to host Libyan rebel envoys soon, the Itar-Tass news agency reported.

"We agreed meetings in Moscow with representatives of both Tripoli and Benghazi. Envoys from Tripoli will be here tomorrow. Envoys from Benghazi were supposed to be here on Wednesday, but as they informed us, they were forced to ask us to postpone this visit for technical reasons," Lavrov was quoted as saying. "We hope it will take place in the foreseeable future." (Reuters)
