One year ago, in summer 2007, after four years of equivocation, 200,000 death and 2 millions refugees, the Security council voted finally the resolution which allowed to create an UN peacekeeping army, and sent it in Darfur, that region in the Sudan Ouest side dived in a civil war. 

Nowadays that UN peacekeeping army made up of several African armies are considered as bad fitted out and very few many, 7,000 from African Union soldier for a territories as large as France.

When China applies its classical foreign policy, it doesn’t want to be involved in making decision for a sovereign foreign country. For China the Darfur crisis has to be resolve by Sudanese people themselves, and not under foreign pressure. Amnesty international blames them to be weapons seller in Sudan. According to the Canadian deputy Maurice Vellacott “most of weapons used in in the Sudanese conflict are made Sudan in Chinese factory”. Vellacott criticizes also the repeated use of the Veto right which China used to concerning resolutions from Security Council of United Nation trying to stop the violence. According to a report of Amnesty international, Beijing would send more than two hundred military trucks in Sudan in 2005.

China is opposed to trade sanctions, it buys about 65% of the Sudan oil production and its invest a lot in this country and contracts with Sudanese government. So china can’t allow to let create a war with other countries involved in this rich underground region and see the Sudanesegovernment overthrown. 

 Radovan Karadzic, one of the world’s most wanted war criminals, has been captured, it was revealed last night.

The Bosnian Serb wartime president could now face a genocide trial at The Hague after 11 years on the run. Karadzic’s arrest and detention by security forces was revealed in a statement from the office of Serbian president Boris Tadic. Karadzic, leader of the ethnic Bosnian Serbs during the 1992-1995 Bosnian war, was indicted by the United Nations war crimes tribunal in The Hague in July 1995.

He is accused of masterminding massacres that the UN war crimes tribunal described as “scene from hell, written on the darkest pages of human history”. Among them was the massacre of 8,000 Muslim men at Srebrenica in 1995. The war crimes tribunal’s head prosecutor Serge Brammertz last night said: ”this is a very important day for the victims who have waited for this arrest for over a decade”.

The US issued a £2.5million bounty for the capture of Karadzic and his army chief Ratko Mladic, who remains at large.
