TRIPOLI, Libya - South African President Jacob Zuma arrived on Monday in Tripoli for talks with Muammar Gadhafi on ending a conflict with rebels fighting to oust the Libyan leader.

Zuma was greeted at Maatiga military airport, just outside the capital, by Gadhafi's prime minister, Baghdadi al-Mahmudi, before the two leaders went into a meeting.

Ahead of the trip, Zuma's office said its main objectives include an immediate ceasefire, enabling the delivery of humanitarian aid and adopting and implementing reforms to eliminate the causes of the conflict.
