« Animal Rights | Back to most recent briefing | President Bush »
Asked if Britain believed that the International Criminal Court was the correct forum for those accused of abuse in Darfur, the PMOS replied that to begin with, we had to study the International Commission Report very carefully. We were very concerned by the findings that Sudan’s government and pro government militias had committed serious violations of international human rights, and we warned the Sudanese government when the Prime Minister visited Sudan, that international attention would not disappear from this issue. There were discussions planned at the Security Council, and there were likely to be more planned. Therefore, it would be better to wait and see what the Security Council advised.
Asked if we accepted the findings, the PMOS said we had nothing to contradict them, but we had to study the report first.
