Chad's main rebel groups said they were "willing" to participate in the national dialogue "under certain conditions" after meetings in Doha and Paris with the committee in charge of preparing the event.
Mahamat Idriss Déby Itno, who took power in Chad following the death of his father Idriss Déby Itno, who was killed in April while fighting rebels, set up a special technical committee (CTS) in August to prepare for the inclusive national dialogue, which should lead to presidential and legislative elections.
