Proceeding contribution from Baroness Kramer (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 18 May 2006. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Darfur Crisis.
Darfur Crisis
I leave it to my hon. Friend the Member for Edinburgh, West (John Barrett), who has been following the Sudanese press, to provide an update on those concerns. The length of time needed for that transfer is a difficult issue, and the sedentary comment that I heard seems quite pertinent. If we assume that there is an agreement to move to UN peacekeeping, we must presumably re-hat the African Union troops, but who will make up the numbers? Like the Secretary of State, I have seen 20,000 cited as an effective, meaningful number of troops to deploy.
