"What you'll hear is, well, the government of Sudan must invite the
United Nations in for us to act," Bush said. "Well, there are other
alternatives, like passing a U.N. resolution saying we're coming in
with a U.N. force in order to save lives."
A weak African Union peacekeeping force, hasn't been able to stop the
violence, expires next month 200,000 people have been killed in Darfur
and over 2 million have fled their homes since 2003 when ethnic African
tribes revolted against the Arab-led government.
Last May, we hoped the signature of the Darfur Peace Agreement by the
government of Sudan and one rebel group would set Darfur on the road to
peace," Blair said
Sudan's President Omar al-Bashir says a switch in command would violate
the country's sovereignty and has warned that his army would fight any
U.N. forces sent to Darfur.
There's genocide taking place in Sudan. And it breaks our collective
hearts to know that. ... I'm troubled by reports I hear about
escalating violence," the president told reporters during a Rose Garden
news conference. "Now is the time for the U.N. to act." Bush said.
further the United Nations hasn't acted" on Darfur and wants to see a "more
robust" effort.
