AAPSO is deeply concerned about the catastrophic situation and human rights violations committed by the Janjaweed and other armed militias, resulting the death of thousands of people and burning many villages and the fleeing of thousands to camps and villages outside big cities.
What makes the situation getting more worse are the threat of imposing sanctions over Sudan and the possibility of foreign intervention especially by American and British under the pretext of saving the nations of Darfur. The same as happened before in Southern Sudan. The proves the secret agenda of American and British as Darfur which almost have the same distance as France is rich of Uranium and Petrol.
Therefore, AAPSO urges the Sudanese government and the national forces in Sudan to move fast for disarming the Janjweed and other militias and to present them to Court in order to achieve peace and stability in Darfur.
Also, this will avoid the Sudanese and the inhabitants in Darfur the interior dictatorship and the possibility of foreign interventions.
In addition, we call upon all Arab countries, the Arab League, African Countries and African Union, Islamic Conference, the NAM and peace-loving forces to stand besides the Sudanese in this crisis as to avoid the repetition of a new Iraq.
Also, we welcomes the efforts of African Union to find political Solution to this issue.
