مجلس الامن دعا الجيش السوداني للانسحاب

Just let me continue here. I wanted to speak on attacks on UN forces in Abyei. The United States deplores the reported attack yesterday of southern forces on a UN convoy that was transporting a company of Sudanese armed forces joint integrated units in Abyei, an attack that is in direct violation of the recent agreement to remove all unauthorized forces from Abyei. We urge the Government of Southern Sudan to account for this attack, take steps to demonstrate its commitment, to implement the Kadugli agreements, and ensure that its forces demonstrate restraint. At the same time, we’re deeply concerned by reports of retaliatory actions by the Sudanese armed forces, including reports of bombing two villages, and call upon the Sudanese Government and its forces to refrain from any other offensive actions. We call upon both sides to stop all military actions in Abyei and proceed to implementing the Kadugli agreement for the withdrawal of all unauthorized forces in Abyei. Political leaders on both sides must take responsibility now to ensure this situation does not escalate into wider crisis.
