SUDAN - THE
UN SECURITY COUNCIL VOTES TO DEPLOY TROOPS TO DARFUR:
WHY DID CHINA, RUSSIA AND QATAR ABSTAIN? AND WHAT ABOUT
THE KHARTOUM GOVERNMENT'S OPPOSITION?
A divided UN Security Council votes to
authorize the
deployment of UN peacekeepers to Sudan's troubled Darfur
region. But the government of Sudan remains defiant
and opposed to this UN move. Is there an international
confrontation looming over Darfur? "We need
a UN force on the ground yesterday. And we are frustrated
more and more by the day by seeing that we do not get
a UN force which could protect the civilian population
and which could also protect the humanitarian work,"says
Jan Egeland, the UN’s Emergency Relief and Humanitarian
Coordinator.
 Plus,
Tanzania's envoy, Augustine Mahiga, on why Khartoum
must accept help: "By its own admission,
it's overwhelmed by the magnitude and complexity of
restoring peace to Darfur."
 And,
the views of the Security Council President for August,
Nana Effah-Appenteng of Ghana, "Although
the resolution is not a magic wand that would heal the
situation in Darfur overnight, its passage nonetheless
is timely and gives the Sudanese government an opportunity
to cooperate with the UN."

DR
CONGO: POST-ELECTIONS GUNFIGHTS IN KINSHASA
SWAHILI AS UN OFFICIAL LANGUAGE ?
The UN's top man
in the DR Congo, William Swing,  speaks
to UN Radio about the challenges ahead
in the next few days, "The
big issue now is to make sure that the
government institutions start working
again and that we put in place compost
building measures that will allow the
process to go forward to the second
round of presidential and the provincial
elections but all of that is beginning
to fall in place slowly."
 And
from the outspoken Kenyan MP , Koigi
Wa Wamwere, who came to New York recently
and championed the idea that an African
language should be spoken officially
at the United Nations, "We
want Africa to produce a language for
the UN. Only then shall we be able to
say that the continent is now decolonized.
Only then shall we be able to say that
indeed the UN is an organization for
the entire world and not just for part
of the world. "
