Sudan: Amnesty International's recommendations on the deployment of a United Nations peace support operation - Amnesty International The Security Council should provide that the United Nations Mission in Sudan has a strong mandate to help ending impunity, by ensuring that those responsible for such crimes are brought to justice, by promoting standards of individual accountability and by ensuring that full reparation is awarded to the victims and their families. The United Nations Mission’s mandate as envisaged by the Secretary-General in his report foresees that the peacekeeping mission would “"support the safe and sustainable return of Sudanese displaced persons and refugees”" and “"the provision of assistance and protection in the Sudan for refugees from other countries.”" (para.28 under Humanitarian assistance and development). These recommendations to the United Nations Security Council on the United Nations Mission in Sudan (UNMISUD) to be deployed under the Comprehensive Peace Agreement have been drawn up in order that the UN mission should be as effective as possible in protecting and promoting human rights. web.amnesty.org /library/Index/ENGAFR540252005?open&of=ENG-SDN

Sudan: Open letter to the members of the United Nations Security Council: The situation in the Sudan We therefore believe that the proposed United Nations Mission in Sudan, UNMISUD, to be deployed under the Comprehensive Peace Agreement, must have, as our report sets out, a strong and well resourced human rights monitoring, protection and promotion component, dealing with all human rights as well as rule of law institution building. As the Security Council is discussing the report of the Secretary-General on the Sudan (S/2005/57), I am writing to present Amnesty International's recommendations on the deployment of a United Nations peace support operation in the Sudan, proposed in the Secretary-General's report. Unfortunately, the first draft resolution presented by the United States of America on the establishment of the new United Mission in Sudan does not endorse the above strong human rights mandate. www.amnestyusa.org /news/document.do?id=ACAD1D7B9AA5BFE180256FB00068A252
