Sudanese Anti-governmental Organization Demands Chinese Peacekeepers Leave

A major Darfur rebel group, the Justice and Equality Movement, was quoted as saying that Chinese peacekeepers were neither welcome nor allowed to enter the area under their control. The organization has demanded the Chinese peacekeepers leave immediately, otherwise, they will take action.

The Chinese Government decided at the invitation of the UN, to send 315 multifunctional military engineers to Darfur for peacekeeping mission. The Chinese engineers will be in charge of the task of constructing roads and bridges and drilling wells in order to prepare for the comprehensive deployment of the UN-AU hybrid forces in Darfur.

China’s participation in the peace-keeping in Darfur is evidence of the role it plays in the settlement of the Darfur problem. China’s participation is well received internationally, as it is conducive to the peace, stability, and reconstruction of Darfur, as well as improving the living standard of the people there.

A spokesperson for the Chinese Government said “The security of UN’s peacekeepers, including the security of Chinese peacekeepers, must be guaranteed. China hopes that those anti-governmental organizations that have not signed the Darfur Peace Agreement will join the peace process as soon as possible, so as to contribute to regional peace, stability and development.”
