Darfur rebel leader to remain in La Belle France
The French government has renewed the residence permit of Sudanese rebel leader Abdel Wahed Mohamed Al Nur for three months on the understanding that he will take part in peace talks, the foreign ministry said. Nur, a founder of the Darfur insurgent Sudan Liberation Movement, has been living in France for the past year. It was expected that his residence permit would not be renewed unless he joined peace talks. "Mr Abdel Wahed Al Nur's stay has been extended by three months. Mr Nur must, during this period, respond positively to the invitations to participate in peace negotiations addressed to him by the UN and the African Union," the foreign ministry said.
