Sudanese leader vows to end Darfur violence despite disarmament doubt
President Omar el-Bashir pledged to end violence in Darfur while Vice President Ali Osman Mohammed Taha says disarming Arab militias within 30 days is not practical. The conflict has killed about 30,000 and displaced millions amid accusations of government backing for the Janjaweed. The U.N. had set a 30 day deadline to quell the violence or face penalties.
