Sudan: Dr. Garand says Cairo agreement completion to Naivasha Peace Agreement
Cairo, June 18 (SUNA) - Chairman
of Sudan People's Liberation Movement (SPLM) Dr. John Garang, has affirmed
the importance of work together by all the people of Sudan toward promoting
the comprehensive peace and boosting democratic transformation and building
national unity. Addressing the signing ceremony of national reconciliation
and comprehensive peace agreement between the government of Sudan and the
National Democratic Alliance (NDA) Saturday in Cairo, Dr. Garang said that
the current challenge to all Sudanese people is to make the unity an attractive
option, especially between the north and south. He called upon the international
community and Egypt in particular to contribute to the rehabilitation of
south Sudan and the war-affected areas, calling on all the political forces
to work according to a joint political programme, which includes all the
Sudanese people from Nemuli in the far south Sudan to Halfa in the north.
He explained that Cairo agreement is a completion to the comprehensive
peace agreement of Naivasha, which was signed between the government of
Sudan and the Sudan People's Liberation Movement (SPLM), expressing hope
that Abuja negotiations between the government of Sudan and the armed movements
in Darfur will succeed to achieve a political solution to put an end to
Darfur crisis. The SPLM chairman has praised the efforts which were exerted
by Arab Republic of Egypt for the signing of Cairo agreement between the
government and the NDA. AS/MO
