Arab Alliance for Darfur demands aid
The Arab Alliance for Darfur (AAD) asked the government of Sudan on Monday to allow humanitarian aid to victims of war in South Kordofan, Blue Nile and Darfur states. The AAD, will meet in Baghdad to hold a summit on Thursday. Another call came from 102 non-governmental organizations who are conducting a parallel summit in Cairo called ‘The Arab Conference to Help and Lead Sudanese People.’ Their aim is to persuade the Sudanese government to approve on the proposal of the Arab League, the European Union and the United Nations without conditions. The secretary general of the AAD said in an interview with Radio Dabanga that they require immediate humanitarian aid for South Kordofan and Blue Nile. The AAD has made 14 recommendations before its summit in Baghdad, pleading to avoid the turning of South Kordofan into another Darfur. He said that South Kordofan and Blue Nile have similarities with what happened in Darfur. The AAD demanded more action from the Arab League this time around to avoid a repeat of history. Response to silence On the other hand, the secretary general added that their organization was a response to the silence of the Arab world regarding what was going on in Sudan. The AAD, he said, aims to define crisis in the Arab world. “All along, I haven’t been involved in the problem because of the collusion of the Arab world in what was going on,” he said during the interview. He added that despite all the hurdles faced from the Arab world and the Sudanese government, his coalition is trying to work in Darfur and other crisis areas in Sudan. ‘Don’t sit still’ Meanwhile, Najeeb Nuaimi, former Qatari minister of Justice and human rights activist, said that the Arab League must not sit still. He said that they should not wait to interfere in the internal affairs as they did in the case of Libya and Syria. Nuaimi advised that the Arab League should protect civilians and ensure access to humanitarian aid. He called on Omar Al Bashir, the Sudanese president to be called on to the conference and be arrested after it and eventually be sent to international court in The Hague.
