'Sudan Ready To Accept Aid Agencies' In Troubled Region Of
Darfur
Sudanese News Updates
15 April 2009
Sudan is prepared to allow new aid
agencies into the restive Darfur province to replace
those the government kicked out last month following
the indictment of President Omar al-Bashir, US senator
John Kerry said, reported the Sudan Tribune yesterday.
Kerry, chairman of the US senate foreign relations
committee, arrived in Sudan for a three-day visit on
Wednesday and met several top officials.
He said "some of that capacity for humanitarian
assistance will be restored".
Sudan expelled 13 organisations in early March,
including Doctors Without Borders and Oxfam GB, after
the International Criminal Court issued an arrest
warrant on al-Bashir for alleged war crimes.
The United Nations has warned that expelling the
agencies, which were providing supplies to millions of
Darfurians, could create a humanitarian catastrophe.
The president accused aid agencies of spying for the
ICC. The ICC accuses al-Bashir of genocide and other
war crimes carried out in Darfur.
The conflict in Darfur began in 2003 when mainly
non-Arab tribesmen took up arms against what they call
decades of neglect and discrimination by the
Arab-dominated Sudanese government. The UN says up to
300 000 people have been killed and 2.5 million
displaced. Sudan claims only about 10 000 have died.
Kerry's visit represents a potential thawing in
relations between the two nations, which have been
tense for years.
In 1997 the US imposed sanctions against Sudan for
harbouring Osama Bin Laden. - Sapa-dpa
