Nigerian President is ready to send 3 000 troops to Darfur

The American envoy to Sudan stressed that the political solution for the Darfur district crisis lies in Nivasha peace agreement with the southern rebels so as to end the central authority.

But he warned that &to=http:// english.pravda.ru/comp/2002/01/16/25737.html' target=_blank>Sudan should not loose its concentration on the South peace agreement because of the concentrated attention on Darfur. He warned that Greater Sudan might be endangered, recalling the Somali crisis where control of the central authority was lost.

The American envoy Charles Snider, who was talking on Thursday following a meeting with Sudanese officials, held Darfur rebels the responsibility of obstructing the peace talks with the &to=http:// english.pravda.ru/world/2002/07/31/33495.html' target=_blank>Sudanese government in Nigeria's capital, Abuja.

He said that the announcement made by the USA on &to=http:// english.pravda.ru/mailbox/22/98/386/13754_America.html' target=_blank>genocide in Darfur was understood by the rebels as a green light for unreasonable demands. Snider called on the rebels movement not to exaggerate demands, reports Arabic News.
