  • Story Text: The United Nations (U.N.) new special representative to the former Yugoslavia, Kofi Annan, on Wednesday (November 1) met Russian foreign minister Andrei Kozyrev for talks in Moscow.

    The meeting coincided with the opening of Yugoslav peace talks in Dayton, Ohio.

    It is Annan's first day in his new, temporary, post. The Ghanaian U.N. undersecretary-general, formerly in charge of peacekeeping, replaces the embattled Japanese diplomat Yasushi Akashi. But he is expected to hold the post only until January 1996.
