Sudan accepts UN/AU hybrid force

Atlast, atlast, atlast!

The Sudanese government has atlast agreed to the UN hybrid force for Darfur! The government had been dragging its feet for a long time over the issue. Now a compromise on the hybrid AU-UN force seems to be favourable for the government, albeit with lots of reservation.

The time is now right to put things in order in Darfur. The hybrid force alone cannot bring peace to Darfur. Efforts must now be exerted for concurrent peace talks to end the suffering. An all inclusive peace shouldbe the goal, not fragmented deals with renegade groups that only worsen the situation.

And let there be peace in Darfur...
