AQMI threatened to execute the Italian hostages if Mauritania does not release their members before March 1. This ultimatum has expired. Mauritania rejects any negotiations or prisoner exchanges with Al-Qaeda, and the European governments are squeesed by their public opinion to save the lives of those in the hands of kidnappers.

Mauritania is the center of finding the solution to the kidnappings of five Europeans, and Nouakchott remains firm on its position resisting any form of pressure. But for how long and who will crackdown first:  The relatives and European governments, or AQMI? …
