 Sudan's foreign minister has said that Khartoum has reached an agreement with the United Nations over the fate of two arrested aid workers. Foreign Minister Mustafa Osman Ismail did not elaborate, but his statement on Wednesday raised expectations that charges will be dropped against the employees of Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF), who were arrested after their agency spoke of alleged rape cases in the troubled western region of Darfur. Ismail said an agreement had been reached that would "allow the voluntary agencies to operate and work professionally within the humanitarian framework and would at the same time preserve the respect and national will of the country", the official Sudan News Agency reported.

The civilized world, less those parts of it that're willfully blind to the depredations of Sudan's regime of Islamist bandits, was remain well aware of the mistreatment of Sudan's citizens, but will politely not mention them. I think I'll go take a shower now. |
