Britain's UN envoy urges UN force for Sudan's Darfur

March 2, 2006 Daily Telegraph Australia report says Britain's UN envoy Emyr Jones Parry has urged Khartoum and the African Union to accept a plan to replace the AU force in Darfur with a robust, Western-backed UN force.

"We would like to see the AU take a decision imminently to actually say we carried the burden, we carried it with dignity and that at this stage the best plan would be for the United Nations to take over that operation," Mr Jones Parry said.
