<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I just talked to Maryam and also closely listen to
the human rights caucus meeting, I should say that is impossible to mediate and
both parties,or even the human right defenders will not accept to sit in one
room with other group (Tunisian NGOs). Our proposal to mediate will lead
no-where. I myself like it very much and felt that its an important
act by CSB, but simply the ground is not ready for it. We should discuss it more
in CSB. </FONT></DIV>
