Chad: Peace accord might result to nothing
2006-12-27
(SomaliNet) Chad's President, Idriss Deby and rebel leader,Mahamat Nour Abdulkerim, signed a peace deal in the presence of LibyaÂ’s president, Col. Muammar Ghadafi. However, the Chad government- rebel leader peace deal might result in nothing positive for Chad.

First of all, Nour led United Front for Change (FUC) is suffering internal wrangles and has split into several splinter groups. This has greatly undermined the groupÂ’s strength. Some rebels under FUC also joined a rebel coalition led by Rally of Democratic Forces (RAFD). Timane Erdimi, a rebel leader, has told AFP that the peace accord means nothing to the rebel movement. "This accord means nothing to us. We began this struggle without Mahamat Nour and we shall finish it without Mahamat Nour. He represents nothing today," Erdimi told AFP.
