British Foreign Secretary rules out Bigley negotiations
The British government is ready to listen Ken Bigley’s kidnappers but will not enter into negotiations with them for the hostage’s release, Britain's Foreign Secretary Jack Straw said in Baghdad today.
“We cannot enter into negotiations but if hostage takers have a message, we will listen to it carefully,” Mr Straw said in Baghdad following a meeting with Iraq’s deputy prime minister for national security, Barham Saleh.
