The European Union and partners do not intend to isolate Mali and its military-led government, the EU's special envoy to the Sahel said, calling for talks despite a plan to severely sanction the country for failing to organize elections.

"The position of the European Union is to be firm on certain principles without closing doors completely," Del Re told Reuters in an interview late on Monday. The two sides have not made public any schedule for talks. Asked for comment, a spokesperson for Mali's government said authorities were also open to dialogue.

Mali's government has warned sanctions could bring the struggling nation to its knees. Urged by the government, thousands of Malians joined street protests on Friday.
