UN to meet on Darfur
The United Nations Security Council is expected to meet on the ethnic conflict and humanitarian crisis in Sudan's Darfur region, a UN spokesperson has said. UN spokesman Fred Eckhardon on Friday said the situation in Darfur has deteriorated because insufficient measures have been taken to stop the fighting. "All would agree that not enough has been done to bring the security situation under control," Eckhard said. Given the urgency on the ground, the 15-nation council will meet on Monday at the request of Secretary-General Kofi Annan, Eckhard said.
What's the rush? It's only been a couple years of day-in, day-out slaughter.
