New York, 4 April 2006 - Statement Attributable to the Spokesman for the Secretary-General on the Planned Visit of USG Jan Egeland to Darfur The Secretary-General regrets that the Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, Mr. Jan Egeland, was not permitted by the Government of Sudan to visit Darfur. The pressing and urgent humanitarian requirements of Darfur are a priority for the United Nations and coordination efforts to sustain this large programme were at the centre of Mr. Egeland's visit. The Secretary-General will be seeking to speak to President Omar Hassan Ahmed al-Bashir on this matter.
