	ReliefWeb » Document Preview » Do Americans care about Darfur? - An International Crisis Group/Zogby ...
		Major international players have justified their failure to resolve the situation by citing an array of bureaucratic, diplomatic and political hurdles that stand in the way of a more robust response to the situation on the ground.
		In that light, the International Crisis Group was particularly keen to more fully explore the attitudes of the American public about the situation in Darfur and what steps it felt were warranted in response.
		Crisis Group commissioned the respected Zogby International polling firm to conduct a public opinion survey in the United States during May 2005.

		Most of the international community is united in its assessment of the Government of Uzbekistan's policies: the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development has cut public lending; the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe has issued critical policy statements; other IFIs have also limited lending to central government.
		ICG has done considerable field work and polling on these issues and we have reported on the strongly negative trends in public opinion of U.S. policies in the region.

		Pollo is one of a group of relative moderates within the DP, who want to see a freer exchange of ideas in the party and more liberal policies, and who regard as urgent the need to increase the DP's standing in the eyes of the voters.
		The international community is pushing the Albanian Government to improve law and order and has stressed that further international aid to Albania will be conditional upon an improved security situation.
		International actors - in particular the European Union and the World Bank - must remain engaged and committed to assisting Albania in combating its most urgent problems: organised crime, illegal smuggling and drug trafficking, as well as a whole host of domestic problems, including access to education, which have developed out of weak state institutions.

	TIMEasia Magazine: Asia's Heroes - International Crisis Group
		For 10 years Crisis Group has undertaken the task of predicting and resolving deadly conflicts worldwide—from North Korea, where the group's analysts are widely considered to be the foremost experts on the opaque nation's economic and political maneuvers, to the nuclear-tinged relations between Pakistan and India.
		Crisis Group's grassroots approach to resolving long-running conflicts is what sets it apart from other think tanks.
		In Crisis Group's judgment, an external military intervention at that point might have derailed the peace process and rekindled the fighting.

		The most troubling obstacle that has emerged to implementation of the CPA is lack of political will on the side of the government and its ruling National Congress Party, which realise fundamental change would necessarily come at the expense of their special interests.
		The international community must be aware of the likelihood that the government and the National Congress Party will seek to undermine implementation in the coming months and years.
		The international community must ensure that Khartoum does not act to undermine the peace and it should enable the South to build viable and representative public institutions", says Suliman Baldo, Crisis Group's Africa Program Director.

	International Crisis Group Report from Mostar, February 13, 1997
		The International Crisis Group (ICG) has examined evidence, including a sequence of photographs of the scene of the violence before and during the shooting, and TV footage of the violence in Mostar.
		A group of about 20 Bosnian Croat youths carrying iron bars and wooden sticks, who had been loitering near the cemetery since that morning and prepared for an incident, were behind the Bosnian Croat police when the group of Bosniacs arrived.
		ICG urges the international community in Bosnia to consider the following additional measures to break the cycle of impunity in Mostar and diffuse the crisis before it is too late:

		If this grave breach of signed agreements is not challenged by the international community, however, it will set a precedent that the parties have no reason to take other parts of the peace process seriously, including any final agreement and accompanying international guarantees that may be reached.
		ICG has learned that monitors on the ground have indeed verified the new and continuing attacks by the government and its allied militias but, perhaps because administrative details for this official reporting mechanism have not been finalised, the mechanism or the governments that back it have said nothing publicly.
		The international community should not only condemn the Sudanese government for these violations of its signed agreements but should also push urgently to make the agreed verification mechanism for the cessation of hostilities agreement fully operational.

	Suez Crisis - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about Suez Crisis (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Cold War politics came into play during the Suez Crisis, and the UK and France found themselves unable to act independently of the USA in a way that they could have done before World War II.
		The support given to Egypt by the Soviets during the Suez Crisis increased their influence in the region, and this was sealed during the 1960s when the USSR provided much of the funding for the Aswan High Dam project in Egypt.
		The Suez Crisis, therefore, had a significant role in the Cold War as well as in the conflict between Egypt and the former colonial powers of Britain and France.

		ICG is a private, multinational research and analysis organization devoted to helping prevent and contain conflict.

		With increased international attention to the disease, and infections in many countries rising fast but not yet out of control, this is a window of opportunity that the international community, donor and recipient nations, and the business community cannot afford to miss.

		ICG’s Board is stacked with notables, many of whom had a hand in the Balkans tragedies of the past ten years.
		ICG’s solution for Kosovo is "conditional independence" — a concept falsely presented last fall as a UN-sanctioned solution, while in reality penned by a self-proclaimed "independent commission" headed by another ICTY alumnus, Richard Goldstone.
		To be honest, ICG does acknowledge that "opposition to independence is strong, especially in parts of the north, but it does not appear severe enough to trigger violence or a counter separatist movement." Well, as long as people do not intend to actually fight for their rights, by all means, trample them.

	Crisis, at the International Crisis Group (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		The ICG scholars could not read the hand writings on the wall that the Burmese army is suppressing the pro democracy movement with numerous arrest and is use in ethnic cleansing, the proof of which are so abundant.
		The ICG paper offers some lame suggestions with regard to the future status of the armed forces such as permitting in administrative duties, in national reconstruction and development, war on drugs, and other political and civilian spheres which amounts to inviting it to intrude into or intervene in politics.
		The paper urges the international community to "abandon the kind of thinking that sees any progress achieved under the military government as an obstacle to democratization and therefore something to be neither supported nor encouraged or even acknowledged." This hypothesis is ridiculous because anything positive the Junta achieves it claims to its legitimacy.

		The wider international community, including the United States and key European states, greeted the efforts of regional leaders to impose a solution on Burundi through a combination of economic pressure and negotiations with barely disguised relief.
		The international community should therefore be ready to support the establishment of a transition government tasked with overseeing and contributing to the process of internal dialogue and with taking part in the external, regional peace process.
		In addition, the international community should be ready to send both financial and technical assistance to help improve the functioning and strengthen the independence of the judiciary.

		The ICG report stressed the importance of establishing a strong judicial system in a country racked by conflict and still largely under the sway of powerful regional commanders who can abuse human rights with impunity.
