Talks in Addis Ababa Aim to Boost Darfur Force
Ban said next week’s talks in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia would center on a plan to deploy more than 3,000 U.N. troops, police and personnel to Darfur. The AU force there is understaffed and underarmed, failing to halt escalating violence that has killed over 200,000 in nearly four years. The conflict strains spill over into Central African Republic and Chad, with hundreds of thousands of Darfur’s 2.5 million homeless refugees.
