Sudanese President’s Plane Forced to Reroute on Way to China
By Maram Mazen - Jun 27, 2011 10:07 AM ET . inShare.0 More Business ExchangeBuzz up!DiggPrint Email ...Sudanese President Umar al-Bashir was forced to postpone meetings with Chinese officials yesterday after his plane was rerouted by Turkmenistan’s civil aviation authorities, Sudan’s Foreign Ministry said.
The rerouting took place yesterday as al-Bashir was flying from the Iranian capital, Tehran, to China to meet President Hu Jintao, the Sudanese ministry’s spokesman, Al-Obaid Murawih, said by phone from Khartoum, Sudan’s capital. He said the plane returned to Tehran and didn’t give its location when the aircraft was forced to change course.
“We don’t see there are political reasons for the change,” Murawih said today. “For us, the change was done due to technical reasons.” He declined to say whether al-Bashir’s plane will pass through Turkmenistan’s airspace after leaving Iran. An official at the Foreign Ministry in Beijing declined to comment on the incident.
The International Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for al-Bashir, accusing him of responsibility for genocide and war crimes in the western Sudanese region of Darfur. Al-Bashir denies the charges. Since the indictment, he has been forced to cancel trips abroad as human rights groups including Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch pressed countries to withdraw invitations or arrest him on arrival.
Al-Bashir had been in Tehran since June 24, and attended a conference there on combating terrorism.
Turkey, Zambia and Central African Republic are among the countries that have canceled planned visits by al-Bashir, according to New York-based Human Rights Watch.
China Not Signatory The Chinese special envoy for African affairs, Liu Guijin, said on June 23 that China isn’t obliged to follow the international court’s order because it isn’t a signatory to the treaty setting up the court.
“Beijing will signal its total disregard for victims of heinous crimes in Darfur if it welcomes al-Bashir,” Richard Dicker, international justice director at Human Rights Watch, said in an e-mailed statement on June 21. “Al-Bashir’s flouting of international arrest warrants should be cause for condemnation, not for an invitation. Beijing should instead be using its influence to press for justice in Darfur.”
The indicted president canceled plans to visit Malaysia this month because he had other engagements, Malaysia’s state-run Bernama news agency reported June 16. The announcement came amid pressure from Human Rights Watch and London-based Amnesty for Malaysia to arrest the African leader if he entered the country.
