President T. Mbeki
“The roots of Darfur’s crisis lie in a history of neglect of the Sudanese peripheries, dating from colonial times and continuing during the years of Sudan’s independence. The crisis in Darfur is a manifestation of Sudan’s inequitable distribution of wealth and power”
Ms Mandela-Machel
“The government doesn’t have an understanding of what it means when women say repeatedly to different people: ‘We are being raped. We are being beaten. We are being brutalized. We are fearful.’ I do not think the people we talked to tonight understand. Ms. Graça Mandela-Machel, Concluding Press Conference, Khartoum, 4”th October 2007
Prof Jody Williams
“Many of the people that we met with in Chad are giving up hope in the belief that the responsibility to protect doesn’t seem to have any meaning or relevance in their lives and in addressing the situation in Darfur.” Professor Jody Williams, 1997 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate, comments on her Mission Report on Darfur,16 March 2007
Mr. Kofi Annan
“This report demonstrates, beyond all doubt, that the last two years have been little short of hell on earth for our fellow human beings in Darfur. And despite the attention the Council has paid to this crisis, that hell continues today.”
Dr Mukesh Kapila
"This is ethnic cleansing, this is the world's greatest humanitarian crisis, and I don't know why the world isn't doing more about it."
