South African President Jacob Zuma is hosting heads of state from Mauritania

South African President Jacob Zuma is hosting heads of state from Mauritania, Uganda and Mali at Sunday's meeting in Pretoria.

Mr. Zuma's office says the leaders will discuss efforts to secure a cease-fire and to bring about political reforms it says are needed to eliminate the causes of the Libyan conflict.

It says they will also talk about efforts to help people affected by the fighting and to protect foreign nationals, including African migrant workers.

The AU has tried to broker peace between Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi and rebels who control much of the country's east.  Mr. Zuma met with Mr. Gadhafi in Tripoli last month in a failed attempt to reach a deal.
