Mali's coup leader, Captain Amadou Sanogo, has rejected the intervention of foreign troops in the rebel-held north; and hinted at his continuing role in ruling the country. The comments come just days after a deal was brokered that is supposed to return the West African state to constitutional rule.

Captain Amadou Sanogo, has held talks on Monday with the speaker of parliament, Dioncounda Traoré, who is set to take over as interim head of state.
The parliamentary speaker is to be sworn in on Wednesday as interim president and the junta to hand over power to allow the return of democratic rule in the troubled West African nation, now half controlled by Islamists and rebels.

Mali was plunged into crisis after a separatist uprising which led to a coup. The March coup set off a sequence of events that saw the northern desert fall to Tuareg rebels and their Islamist allies, triggering a major humanitarian crisis.
