Mengapa tidak disiapkan pasukan Islam dari PBB utk melerai
bentrokan ethnis (sebutan rebel dari pemerintah SUDAN) dgn
Pemerintahan Sudan? Seingatnya ini perlu diselesaikan dgn dialog dan
kerja sama termasuk membangun demokrasi. Dan dapat mengunakan bantuan
PBB utk masalah HAM dari kelaparan dan pertanian/perternakan.

Dari mulainya US meminta EU (Eropa Union) untuk sanksi sanksi ke
Sudan, padahal sanksi itu termasuk memberatkan kehidupan masyarakat
Sudan yg bermayoritas Islam. Perlu ada partisipasi dari Arab dan
Islam untuk menyelesaian masalah tersebut.

Wassalam Allaikum Wr.Wb,

EU to Threaten Sudan With Sanctions

By CONSTANT BRAND, Associated Press Writer

BRUSSELS, Belgium - European Union (news - web sites) foreign
ministers agreed Monday to push for U.N. sanctions against Sudan if
the country does not move to end the conflict in the Darfur region.

In a statement citing their "grave concern," the EU ministers said
they were "alarmed by reports of massive human rights violations"
perpetrated by Arab militias, including the "systematic rape of
women."

"The risk is very high for a potential catastrophe," said EU foreign
policy chief, Javier Solana.

The foreign ministers said they "expect the government of Sudan to
ensure that these violations stop with immediate effect" or the EU
would take "appropriate further steps."

While not using the word "sanctions," EU officials speaking on
condition of anonymity said the 25-member bloc would likely push for
such a move by the U.N. Security Council.

German Foreign Minister Joschka Fischer demanded that Sudan implement
a July 3 promise to U.N. Secretary General Kofi Anna to control pro-
government militias, improve security and provide better access for
relief efforts.

"Unity in the international community is very, very important,"
Fischer said. "The Sudanese government has to deliver."

Austrian Foreign Minister Benita Ferrero-Waldner said the EU had to
be "very strict" with Sudan.

"The question is what can be the right sanctions, or the right
measures in order to make the government of Sudan really comply,"
Ferrero-Waldner told reporters.

The violence began 15 months ago when two rebel groups from Darfur's
African tribes took up arms in a struggle over land and resources
with Arab countrymen. Arab militias known as Janjaweed then began a
brutal campaign to drive out the black Africans.

As many as 30,000 people, most of them black Africans, have been
killed and more than 1 million people have fled their homes. Some 2.2
million are in urgent need of food or medical attention.

The 25-nation European Union, the United States and humanitarian
groups have accused the Sudanese government of backing the militias �
a claim it denies.

Last week, Congress declared the atrocities amounted to genocide, and
urged the Bush administration to do the same. A U.N. convention
obligates the international community to prevent and punish acts it
has declared as genocide.

European officials have so far refused to label the killings as
genocide.

Backing its threat of sanctions, the EU said it was preparing "a list
of Janjeweed leaders responsible for breaches and violations of human
rights and international humanitarian law, and those guiding and
supporting them."

The EU said the Sudanese government "will be pressed to arrest these
persons or suspend them from office and to bring them to justice."

The 25 foreign ministers also urged Sudan to admit more aid workers
to provide emergency food and shelter.

The United Nations (news - web sites) plans to send a peacekeeping
mission by the end of 2004 to Darfur, a region the size of Iraq
(news - web sites) with a population of 6.7 million.
