62 نائب امريكي يقدمون رسالة للرئيس اوباما لتغيير سياسته تجاه الخرطوم

Quote: The current model of addressing Sudan’s conflicts through individual mediation processes – effectively stove-piping each conflict – is not working. The Government of Sudan has successfully pitted conflict areas against each other. This cynical tactic has allowed it to avoid making any broader, more comprehensive changes. Constitutional reform and inclusive governance are central to the prospect of real and lasting change. Longtime Sudan watchers assert that U.S. policy should immediately press for a central, comprehensive process that pulls in all parties in conflict across Sudan to seek peace and structural democratic reform. The Administration must marshal the international community to: provide democracy promotion assistance to civil society organizations, independent media, and anticorruption initiatives; invest in accountability in both Sudans, including targeted financial sanctions against those primarily responsible for abuses and the businesses they control; investigate evidence of ethnic cleansing in the Nuba Mountains and Abyei; and bring all parties together in one process that will replace stove-piped peace negotiations. Our relations with other countries will be critical in mustering the international leverage necessary to effect these changes in Sudan.
