Colombian gov't, ELN rebels to restart talks Jan. 12
Colombia
Bogota - ArabToday
Colombia's government and National Liberation Army (ELN) guerrilla group will meet on Thursday "to restart talks" towards an eventual peace agreement, local media reported on Sunday.
The talks "will restart Jan. 12 in Quito (Ecuador), after they were postponed until the end of October on the request of the rebels," the Caracol News website said, citing a government official.
The meeting aims to "fix a date for the installation of a public dialogue" between the two sides, Juan Camilo Restrepo, the government's negotiator to talks with the ELN, said in a statement.
The government of President Juan Manuel Santos recently signed a definitive peace deal with the country's largest rebel group, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), to end five decades of fighting.

Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home.
