CANDIDATES : IF YOU COULD FIGHT IN THE DARFUR CIVIL WAR, would you?
by: Lorou the owl


The organization Urgence Darfur organized an important meeting on March, 20th at La Mutualité in Paris. This was to alert the candidates of the presidential election about the situation in this region of Sudan.

The philosopher Bernard-Henri Lévy and Bernard Kouchner, who co-wrote Médecins sans frontières and Médecins du monde, were present.

The organization had invited the candidates to ask them how they intended to act on the question of Darfur. This region of West-Sudan has known the civil war for four years.
Only François Bayrou, the candidate of the UDF, answered this call.

Urgence Darfur includes the following associations : Communauté Rwandaise de France, la Fédération Nationale, associations franco-african B'nai B'rith France, la Licra, SOS Racisme and the Union des étudiants Juifs de France.
The question can still be asked.
