April 20, 2008 (PARIS) — SLM leader Abdel-Wahid al-Nur welcomed efforts exerted by Darfur peace mediators to stop escalation of violence and attacks against civilians in the troubled region. However, he stressed that no need to sign further document to stop insecurity.
Abdelwahid al-Nur At the end of their fifth visit to Sudan, Darfur peace envoys Jan Eliasson, of the UN, and Salim Ahmed Salim, of the African Union told reporters in Khartoum yesterday on April 19 that warrant parties are willing discuss security arrangements.
Abdel-Wahid al-Nur told Sudan Tribune that there is no need to hold new talks on security arrangements because the signed ceasefire deals and the UN Security Council resolution on the matter are quiet enough.
He underscored the need to implement it and not to sign new document.
"What we need is coordination meetings between the parties and the hybrid peacekeeping force to enforce these agreements and resolutions" al-Nur said.
The rebel leader said that international community should point that the attacks against civilians, the war crimes, and all the human rights breaches are the deed of the Sudanese army and the affiliated militias.
Abdel-Wahid refused to take part in different consultations organised by the mediators and to participate in Sirte peace talks last October. He asks to provide security to the civilians, to disarm Janjaweed militia, and to remove newly settled tribes in the region.
He said that the security issue is vital for Darfur people and the peace process. We demand since long time security before talks. So we have noting against but it is a question of approach, he stressed.

Darfur warring parties willing to discuss security arrangements - envoys

April 19, 2008 (KHARTOUM) — U.N. and African Union Peace envoys today announced the approval of all parties to the conflict in Darfur to start talks leading to stop the deterioration of the security situation before to engage in direct negotiations to achieve peace in Darfur
At the end of their fifth visit to Sudan, Jan Eliasson, the UN Secretary General envoy for Darfur and Salim Ahmed Salim, the African Union envoy to Darfur held on Saturday a press conference at the premises of the United Nations in Khartoum.
Salim Ahmed Salim said that Sudanese government and all the rebel movements in Darfur had expressed during the meetings that have taken place "their willingness to discuss the security arrangements."
"But each one of them had his own position on how this can be brought about ... Whether this could lead to a cessation of hostilities or to a ceasefire, this is the work that is being accomplished now." Salim added.
Jan Eliasson, said that they will begin a process consisting of three elements 1 - How and ways of the ceasefire, 2 - Cooperation between the Government of Sudan and UNAMID and the rebel movements in Darfur 3 – Ways to stop attacks and banditry occurring in Darfur, which has impacted negatively on the security operation and the civilians in Darfur.
Banditry has long been common in the remote west of Sudan, which borders Chad, Libya and the Central African Republic, but armed bands have organised to take advantage of rich pickings from the influx of U.N. and aid agency vehicles since the rebellion began.
The conflict has claimed an estimated 200,000 lives with 2.5 million forced from their homes, according to the United Nations. Khartoum disputes the figures, saying 9,000 have been killed.
Eliasson expressed hope that the talks on security arrangements begin before this autumn. He further said it is not possible now to give the date where the parties will sit together, or discuss in any other form the security measures that may lead to a ceasefire or cessation of hostilities.
He added that various circles have now begun work on these arrangements in coordination with the UNAMID.
The underscored that the current efforts aim to quell violence in the region and clear the way for the resumption of peace talks before the end of the year.
Salim further told the media "we are not saying that all parties now prepared for a ceasefire to determine when it will take place; but we said that all the parties have expressed willingness — whether the Justice and Equality Movement, the Sudan Liberation Movement led by Abdel-Wahid al-Nur or the Government of Sudan — to discuss security arrangements.
The two envoys pointed out that the current row between Sudan and Chad is one of the reasons that led to the escalation of violence in Darfur. Salim said no one could believe that the problem of Darfur will be resolved unless there was a normalization of relations between Sudan and Chad.
They also welcomed the different offers to host peace talks including a proposal from UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown to hold peace talks in Britain.
The envoys pointed out that Brown didn’t consult them in advance. However Britain accepted that their offer is going to be under the lead of the United Nations and the African Union, underlined Eliasson.
In May 2006, Sudanese government and a SLA faction led by Minni Minawi signed a peace deal and some small splinter groups. Nonetheless the peace pact did not change the level of violence in the region, and the security situation even deteriorated since the signing of the deal and the fragmentation among the two main rebel groups.
A joint African Union-United Nations peacekeeping mission took over in January from a beleaguered AU force to try to stem the violence. But it only has about 9,000 troops and police on the ground, out of a total of the authorized 26,000.
After spending around one year in attempts to reunite the different rebel factions in Darfur, the international community now seems convicted that no peace without security on the ground.

Darfur advocacy group criticize US-Sudan negotiations to normalize ties
Monday 21 April 2008 06:30. Printer-Friendly version Comments...
April 20, 2008 (WASHINGTON) — A powerful Darfur advocacy group in the US issued a strong worded statement criticizing a move by the Bush administration to negotiate normalizing ties with the Sudanese government.
“Darfur activists around the world were at-once stunned, confused and outraged by this report on the content of the U.S.-Sudan negotiations. It is so at odds with President Bush’s rhetoric on Sudan as to be simply unbelievable” said Jerry Fowler, president of the Save Darfur coalition.
“Special Envoy Williamson should clarify the administration’s views on Sudan when he appears before the Senate next week” Fowler added.
Save Darfur Coalition is a coalition of over 160 faith-based, humanitarian, and human rights organizations dedicated to ending what they believe is genocide in the western Sudanese region of Darfur.
Last week the New York Times (NYT) obtained a series of documents exchanged between the Washington and Khartoum on a series of steps to normalize relations between the two countries. The documents were leaked by an unidentified US official described as being “critical of the administration’s position”.
The report said that the Bush administration could remove Sudan from an American list of state supporters of terrorism and normalize relations if the Sudanese government agreed, among other steps, to allow Thai and Nepalese peacekeepers as part of the peacekeeping force.
The newly appointed US special envoy to Sudan Richard Williamson met in Rome last week with a high level Sudanese delegation to discuss normalization of ties. The meeting adjourned late Friday and will be resumed “within a month” according to Sudan official news agency (SUNA).
Fowler said in a statement that “normalizing ties with Sudan should be very far off, particularly given that Secretary-General Ban just this week issued a dire report on the continued violence in Darfur and Sudan’s blocking of the UNAMID civilian protection force”.
"Khartoum sets the gold standard for breaking international promises which is why previous discussions of normalization have foundered” he added.
The leakage of the documents by the NYT may complicate the new US initiative and place the Bush administration under extreme pressure from US lawmakers and lobby groups to scrap it.
The US envoy will appear before the Senate Foreign relations committee headed by Senator Joe Biden next Wednesday to discuss the Darfur crisis. It is expected that Williamson will come under fire from the Senators to justify the latest move by the US administration to normalize ties with Khartoum despite the lack of progress on Darfur crisis.
Exactly a year ago the former US special envoy to Sudan Andrew Natsios appeared before the committee in a hearing that featured an angry exchange between him and Senator Robert Menendez.
The senator and the special envoy argued back and forth in loud voices, each repeatedly interrupting the other. Other US lawmakers at the hearing lashed out at the administration for delaying sanctions on Sudan.
International experts estimate some 200,000 have died and over 2 million have been driven from their homes during 4-1/2 years of fighting in Darfur. Sudan puts the death toll from the conflict at just 9,000.

Plane carrying Darfur war crimes suspect forced to make emergency landing
Monday 21 April 2008 14:45. Printer-Friendly version Comments...
April 20, 2008 (KHARTOUM) — A Sudanese government minister wanted by the International Criminal Court (ICC) escaped death as a plane he was boarding almost crashed during severe thunderstorms.
State minister for humanitarian affairs Ahmed Haroun (Reuters) The state minister for humanitarian affairs, Ahmed Mohamed Haroun was on a plane returning from the Southern city of Malakal in the Upper Nile state. The ICC suspect was accompanied by Philip Ton, minister of transportation and Haroun Lawal minister of humanitarian affairs.
The delegation also included senior military figures such as the head of the army engineering unit and the Sudan People Liberation Army (SPLA) representative in the Joint Integrated Units (JIU).
The pro-government Akhir-Lahza said that the weather quickly deteriorated minutes after the plane took off from Malakal airport. The newspaper said the pilot “barely maneuvered through the thunderstorm causing all the passengers to hold their breath”.
As the plane approached Khartoum it was forced to divert to another airport in central Sudan’s Al-Obeid region after a sandstorm hit the Sudanese capital. The control tower in Khartoum airport authorized the plane to return after the weather improved half an hour later.
Haroun was part of a delegation observing the process of demining the road between the cities of Malakal, Bor and Juba.
The judges of the ICC issued their first arrest warrants for suspects accused of war crimes in Sudan’s Darfur region in early May.
The warrants were issued for Ahmed Haroun and militia commander Ali Mohamed Ali Abdel-Rahman, also know as Ali Kushayb. Sudan has so far rejected handing over the two suspects.
Sudan has not ratified the Rome Statue, but the UN Security Council triggered the provisions under the Statue that enables it to refer situations in non-State parties to the world court if it deems that it is a threat to international peace and security.

Jonglei’s schoolchildren challenge state education system
Tuesday 22 April 2008 03:23. Printer-Friendly version Comments...
By Philip Thon Aleu
April 21, 2008 (BOR, Jonglei) – Long holidays and low number of schools in Jonglei state is an "academics weevil," teachers and pupils expressed here Saturday April 19 at a seminar organized by primary teachers and high school students at Bor "A" primary school. They (teachers and pupils) call on the state government to consider reviving education system.
Schools in Jonglei state opens on April 1 despite using East African and New Sudan curriculum; calendar teachers and pupils call unacceptable. "There is no system here," Thon Bol, a primary eight pupil in Bor "B" primary school told Sudan Tribune at the seminar.
The teachers on the other hand complain about low teacher-pupils ratio. "In Bor "B" primary school, I registered 1,800 pupils in the first two weeks of the academics year that started on April 1st," Deng Machok, deputy head teacher revealed pointing that there are only ten (10) teachers recruited to teach in the school.
This arithmetically puts teacher: pupils’ ratio at 1:180, and substantially reducing children’s chances of learning. Moreover, there is only one classroom block serving upper classes of Primary 8, 7 and 6. Other classes learn under trees or seasonal tents set-up by school administration, Mr. Machok lamented a visible problem at his school.
The seminar that attracted 78 pupils was organized by Garang Institute students in conjunction with Bor "B" school authorities. It is the first time higher learning Jonglei citizens had made to help the ailing education format in the state through seminar.
The teachers-pupils’ challenge to Jonglei state style of education is not an accident. An international lecturer and a born from Jonglei, Prof. Agrey Ayuen elaborated at the opening ceremony of John Garang Institute on February 1 that teaching is poor at the low level of learning in Southern Sudan.
"We find a lot of difficulties in teaching students at the Universities, and this is an indication that something must be wrong at the primary or secondary levels," Prof. Agrey said referring to how weak how the curriculum is developed adding that the ministry of education must do something.
On the other hand, the organizers of the weekend’s seminars call upon the state government to come to their rescue. "We do not have means to transport teachers from various parts of Bor town to Bor "A," no funds to afford lunch for teachers and pupils and other teaching materials," head of the seminar organizers and a student at John Garang Institute Abraham Dhieu Machar told Sudan Tribune adding, "we too demand a word of courage from our elders."
He encouraged pupils to be tolerant and challenge the government by coming to schools despite what pupils call "lack of system." The pupils welcome the move to have seminars organized over weekend but fear ministry of education may not support the program.
"The seminar is okay," Ding Stephen, a primary eight pupils noted, but who will like it, he concluded.
Effort to back government’s LEAVE NO CHILD BEHIND campaign is likely to fail if source of ’motivating facilitation’ is not rescue. Arrangement made to interview state education ministry on issues pertaining curriculum, lengthy holidays that deprived school children of coverage, few numbers of schools in the state, low provision of teaching aid facilities, few classrooms and high teacher: pupils’ ratio failed as the state education ministry officials were not available.
