Sudan seeks progress on Darfur talks

Sun Nov 15, 2009

An aide to Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir has invited a former rebel leader to take part in peace talks aimed at ending the six-year conflict in Darfur.

Ghazi Salaheddine told reporters on Saturday at the Sudanese Embassy in Paris that no one should have a right of veto over a possible peace deal.

However, Abdel Wahid Mohammed Nur, the ex-leader of the Sudanese Liberation Army currently in exile in the French capital, is refusing to take part in the discussions.

In February, Darfur's most active rebel group, the Justice and Equality Movement, signed an agreement with the Sudanese government in Qatar that paved the way for broader peace talks over the conflict in Darfur.

The deal calls for an end to attacks on the over two million people who are in refugee camps and an exchange of prisoners.

The Doha mediated talks are scheduled to resume in a few days.
