A group of international leaders, including Sinn Fein leader Gerry Adams and former United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan, meet yesterday to call fr a end to ETA's use of violence. The team wrote a statement read by the irish prime minister called for peaceful talks with the French and Spanish governments. Both governmentsare urged to welcome the idea of a apeacful resolution. The statement was made in San Sebastian a key basque city. Eta listed so far as a terrrist organization responsible over 800 deaths including the death fo a major spanish figure head. Last January a ceasefire was called and hopefully signaled the end of the violence. The European Union calls for reparations and reconciliation forcing Spain to officially recognize the thousands murder in the civil war. This is still an open wound for Spain and the talks this monday may achieve very little in the Bosque situation and many are skeptical if they will even help at all.
