UNITED NATIONS - / MaximsNews Network /
- 12 October 2007 –
United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon
today voiced concern about the decision by the Sudan People's Liberation
Movement to suspend its participation in the Government of National Unity.
In a
statement released by his spokesperson, Mr. Ban also called on both parties to
the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) to “resolve the situation in a manner
that preserves the integrity of the Agreement.”
He urged
the parties, particularly the National Congress Party, “to urgently take the
necessary steps to address the outstanding issues related to the implementation
of the CPA,” the spokesperson said, pledging the UN's readiness to help
accelerate progress, restore the necessary trust between them and keep the CPA
on track.
Struck
on 9 January 2005, the CPA ended a 21-year civil war between North and South
Sudan. The UN Mission in Sudan (UNMIS) is now deployed to monitor compliance
with the accord.
