Sudan pledges to cooperate with UN and AU on peace strategy
January 31, 2010 (KHARTOUM) — President Omer Hassan Al-Bashir has expressed today Sudan’s readiness to cooperate with the UN and the African Union in a four-track announced by the UN Secretary General in Addis Ababa.
Ban Ki-Moon told the special summit on Sunday that the common strategic objective for 2010 should be a peaceful resolution to the two conflicts in Sudan. He further said UN would pursue a four-track strategy to achieve this goal.
The UN chief emphasized the UN will work with Sudanese parties, the AU “to coordinate activities and forge a consensus on the way forward,” strengthen the UN presence on the ground, promote discussions between the parties on key post-referendum issues, and to work with our partners to help build the capacity particularly in South Sudan.
President al-Bashir confirmed the readiness of the Government of Sudan to cooperate with representatives of the Secretary-General of the United Nations and African Union Commission Chairperson for the enforcement of the four tracks, said Presidential adviser Mustafa Osman Ismail in a statement to the official Sudan News Agency.
Ismail also said that Bashir briefed the meeting on the latest developments in Darfur, elections, and Sudan’s relations with international community and the implementation of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement.
According to the presidential adviser, the summit praised the positive developments taking place in Sudan, particularly on the implementation of the CPA and the situation in Darfur.
Jean Ping, the chairman of the AU commission and Ban ki-Moon this week said worried about the possible secession of the southern Sudan.
Ban reminded the CPA parties their commitment to make unity attractive but stressed that “In the end, the future of Sudan rests with the Sudanese people.” He also said the UN and AU must “provide them with critical assistance on their difficult journey towards lasting peace and prosperity.”
