From staff and wire reports HARARE, Zimbabwe (CNN) -- After a meeting with Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe, U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Richard Holbrooke said on Monday that prospects for peace look good in Congo, where a five-month peace accord is in tatters because of renewed fighting. "We are pleased. We spoke partly grand strategy and partly very specific detail," Holbrooke said after a two-hour meeting. Holbrooke said he didn't think "it would be appropriate to go into operational detail" until he met with other key players in the Congo conflict. About 11,000 Zimbabwe troops, along with forces from Namibia and Angola, are stationed in the huge central African nation to aid President Laurent Kabila's battle against Rwandan- and Ugandan-backed rebels trying to oust him.
