Sudan says it will observe UN resolution
The Sudanese government agreed to observe the UN resolution on Darfur, avoiding threatened sanctions to their oil industry. But it says the resolution is unfair and unjust to Sudan.
The Sudanese Embassy in America issued a statement saying the resolution is unfair and unjust to Sudan. The UN resolution says leaders and Arab militias are guilty of genocide in Darfur. An estimated 50,000 people have died during the conflict. Meanwhile, Agricultural minister El Sahafa said in Khartoum that the United States pushed the UN to pass the resolution to shift people's attention from Iraq during the US election campaign. Ugandan army kills 25 rebels in southern Sudan
UPDF spokesman Major Shaban Bantariza said Sunday that the fighting took place between Katire and Imatong hills on Saturday. Bantariza said Kony was within the area at the time of the attack, but declined further information regarding his whereabouts. He added that the Ugandan army also recovered 11 guns from the rebels. Kony and his top commanders have been meandering around Katire and Imatong hills since June this year. In yet another development, the army spokesman has once again insisted that northern Uganda is generally calm and cannot be compared to Darfur region in Sudan in anyway. Bantariza was reacting to claims by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) that northern Uganda was as insecure as Darfur. Bantariza explained that northern Uganda is being fully protected by the government forces. |
