EUHR Solana welcomes result of Arusha meeting on peace in Darfur

Summary: 7 August 2007, Brussels - Javier SOLANA, EU High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP), welcomes the result of the Arusha meeting on peace in Darfur, that was held from 3 to 6 August:

"The prospect of peace in Darfur has moved a significant step closer. The outcome of the AU/UN-brokered Arusha meeting on peace in Darfur is very encouraging. The common position among essential non-signatory movements is an achievement, which holds the promise of peace negotiations in the coming months.

The decision to deploy the Hybrid Operation has contributed to the current political momentum.

The EU will continue its strong support for the peace process in Darfur and urges all parties, the rebel movements and the Government of Sudan, to live up to their commitments. Now is the time to engage and demonstrate genuine dedication to put an end to this crisis."
