Ghazni governor calls for more talks

A South Korean delegation has arrived in the Afghan province of Ghazni where 21 Koreans are being held hostage by the Taliban. They want to hold direct talks with the kidnappers and peacefully end the two-week old ordeal. The Taliban have killed two of the 23 Koreans originally taken hostage and have threatened to kill the rest if their demands for the release of Taliban prisoners are not met.
