Tony Blair has backed imposing a no-fly zone over Sudan’s Darfur region, calling for “tougher action” if the government in Khartoum does not halt violence there and allow in a UN-led peacekeeping force.
The Bush administration is also working on other military options should the crisis continue to deteriorate, including air strikes and a naval blockade, US officials said.

Mr Blair declared his support for a no-fly zone for the first time during his visit last week to Washington. He told President George W. Bush that they had to deal with Omar al-Bashir, the Sudanese president, in the next two to three months.
“If rapid progress is not made, we will need to consider alternative approaches, with international partners,” Mr Blair warned on returning to London.
Planning has moved ahead, according to one official, who added: “The Americans mean business.”
Military action in another oil-rich Muslim country almost four years after the Iraq invasion would be risky. But some officials in Washington and London suggest that it might be the only way to deal with the situation in the western Sudanese region. Between 100,000 and 400,000 people have died there through famine and slaughter and 2.5m more have fled their homes since 2003.
A no-fly zone would be designed to prevent the Sudanese government using its air force or helicopter gunships in attacks against villages in Darfur. Such attacks have been alleged by UN monitors and human rights organisations.
No decisions over possible military action over Darfur have been reached and such a course would be considered only if Mr Bashir resists UN demands for the deployment of a “hybrid” force of UN and African Union peacekeepers.
Opposition from the US military is said to be strong. Analysts and diplomats are also sceptical the US and UK will conclude that military intervention against Khartoum’s wishes would rescue a complex situation.
Armed action would also risk destroying a separate North-South agreement that ended decades of civil war last year.
China, which consumes almost two-thirds of Sudan’s oil exports, is said to be concerned that its image is being tarnished by its close association with Khartoum. But envoys doubt that Beijing would back any UN plan that might affect its oil purchases.
Mr Blair spoke in Washington of his fears that the violence and “terrible suffering” in Darfur might destabilise the whole region. He called for “tougher action” but with UN approval.
Andrew Natsios, the US special envoy for Sudan, flew to Khartoum at the weekend to make another diplomatic push, though US officials doubted Mr Bashir would allow the deployment of peacekeepers.
“We are very concerned that [Mr Bashir] is buying more time to continue with military operations in Darfur. We need a different game plan,” one official told the Financial Times. He referred to what the US is calling “Plan B”, believed to be a package of sanctions and coercive action.
The official confirmed that the US wanted to work with France in Chad, where Paris already has about 1,200 troops to assist the government against Sudanese-backed rebels. The French air force is also defending a similarly threatened neighbouring regime in the Central African Republic.
