White House won't say if Obama supports Sudan move
WASHINGTON — The White House is dancing carefully around the question of how President Barack Obama feels about the International Criminal Court's decision to issue an arrest warrant for Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir.

Press secretary Robert Gibbs said Wednesday the White House believes that anyone who has committed atrocities in Darfur should be held accountable. He said the president supports the pursuit of an immediate cease-fire and long-term peace in the region.
