Khartoum Calls for Condemnation of Rebel Group
UN Intergrated Regional Information Network (Kenya), September 3

The government of Sudan has written to UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan requesting that the international community, and the United Nations in particular, condemn "the ongoing aggression by the rebel movement (Sudan People's Liberation Movement/Army) against the Sudanese people in general, and the people in the south in particular."

In a letter from Foreign Minister Mustafa Osman Isma'il, it also called on the UN "to exert pressure on the rebel movement to accept an immediate ceasefire in southern Sudan." Khartoum accused the rebel movement of having exacerbated the war in Sudan by launching "intensive military operations in Bahr al-Ghazal state", displacing thousands of civilians and creating a humanitarian crisis in the state and its immediate environs.

The SPLM/A had also made it clear that it would continue its military operations in an effort "to engulf the states of Kordofan and Darfur in western Sudan," the letter stated.
