A car drives past flags at the 10th African Union Summit 01 February 2008 in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. A summit of African leaders shifted its attention from the crisis in Kenya to Chad, with delegates voicing fears of a major conflict that could scupper peace efforts in Sudan. The 53-state African Union also elected Gabon's foreign minister, Jean Ping, as the new chairman of its main executive arm, replacing the charismatic Alpha Omar Konare, Mali's former president, who had been at the helm since 2003.
