RNPS PICTURES OF THE YEAR 2007 - Siaka Kone, 25, his face wounded by a gunshot during the recent riots, recovers at Donka hospital in Conakry February 17, 2007. Guinea's unions called off talks with the government aimed at ending protests in which more than 120 people have died, saying they would not negotiate until President Lansana Conte lifted martial law. Union leaders had been due to meet senior government officials amid growing international calls for the veteran Conte to end his five-day-old state of emergency and negotiate a political settlement with unions opposed to his 23-year rule.
