Possible further NATO support for Darfur
On request by the UN Secretary General, Kofi Annan, in a telephone call to NATO's Secretary General on 27 March, NATO Allies have agreed today to develop options for possible continued support to the African Union mission in Darfur, and potentially also to a possible follow-on UN mission in Darfur.
These options will not envisage any NATO force on the ground in Darfur, nor a leading role for the Alliance. The Allies will consider these options in the coming weeks.
